A word to our mother and grandmother!
We will miss the sound of your voice and the wise words you would speak.
Our minds are weary and hearts are weak.
You were the apple of all of our eyes.
Now it’s time for us to say our final goodbyes.
We will not cry or fuss because we know you wouldn’t want that from us.
Our heavenly father put you here on loan,
Now our heavenly father has called you home.
We truly miss you, love you always and forever Your children and grandchildren.
