A gentle wind blew cross the land
Reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came
Calling out a mother's name.

Left behind, the children's tears
Loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent
And now to God a mother's sent.

On angel's wings, a heavenly flight
The journey home, towards the light
To those who weep, a life is gone
But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn.

Deepest Sympathy to Jackie and family. We love you. Marie Hunter Hayes and family (North Lauderdale, Fl)

My family and I spent many happy hours with Yvonne during our daily visits to the Oval unit to visit my mother, Phyllis Dunn. We thought that it was kind of neat that the two gals from Pearisburg wound up living together in the autumn of their lives. Yvonne was such a sweet, sweet lady and we feel blessed for having known her. May the gracious Lord comfort you during this time of loss and may reflections of her joyous personality bring you peace.

Fondly,
Pam Austin and family
