God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not to be,
so he put his arms around you and whispered,"Come to Me"
With tearful eyes we watched you,
and saw you pass away.
although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,he only takes the best.

Pooh,
Today is the first holiday without you. Since it's Thanksgiving I am thankful for the time we had with you. You will always hold a place in my heart no matter what day of the year it is. One of your boy's and his other half and the rest of the family and your favorite grandchild.

Grandma
Thank you for the gift of love,
now you're sharing it up above.
You had many things to say.
All in a caring way.
You always saw good in everyone,
No matter what they've done.
You were always the one we could all lean on.
Even though it must have felt like a ton.
You were always the strength of the family.
Now we must let you rest calmly.
As we say goodbye,
as tears roll down our eyes.
I know your place in heaven has a good view.
Because you're telling God,
I need to keep an eye on a few.
I know you will always be in our hearts and mind.
So Grandma,
I must go, but I'll never forget you're one of a kind.
Now you can rest your head on the puffy cloud with pop and watch us from up above
I love you

Mom you know I was never good with words or how to express myself so here I go. I know you are feeling better in heaven I miss you very much and I know you will always be up there watching over us Mom you will never be forgotten Love and Miss you your son Eddie
For all the things I didn't say,
About how I felt along the way--
For the love you give and the work you've done,
Here's appreciation from your admiring son.
You cared for me as a little tot,
When all I did was cry a lot,
And as I grew your work did too--
I ran and fell and got black and blue.
I grew some more and it didn't stop.
Now you had to become a cop
To worry about mistakes I'd make.
You kept me in line for my own sake.
I got older, and the story repeated;
You were always there whenever I needed.
You guided me and wished me the best,
I became wiser and knew I was blessed.
So, for all the times I didn't say,
The love I felt for you each day,
Mom, read this so you can always see
Just how much you mean to me
