Marlene Irwin Memoriam

Published by Legacy Remembers from Oct. 19 to Oct. 20, 2011.
Passed away 19th October, 2010. And so it seems the year has passed, Not having you here seems so harsh, Every single day and night I think of you, And all the things we used to do, Your love for birds and all God's creatures, You had so many quality features, You always told it like you saw, That made me respect you even more, The love you gave made me strong, It gave me strength to carry on, In my heart you'll always be, The best Mum of all who moulded me, So rest in peace until we meet again, I'll do my best to hide my pain, I'll put on a brave face to all the others, To me you were the queen of mothers, I'm thankful for the time we had, But I know your back in the arms of Dad, I was not ready for you to go, Just how much you'll never know. We love and miss you from all your daughters and grandchildren xxx
