Old Grandma November 26, 1935 To March 9, 2011

On this cold, weary day, Where we gather in sorrow, Wondering what's in store For tomorrow's tomorrow. A long life lived To its fullest extent. You are long loved forever, And within your love we are content. No longer will you suffer, For we have heavy hearts Drenched in tears and sorrow As we watch for you under the stars. We would give up all of the world Just for us to see That little piece of heaven Looking back at thee. Tonight as we sleep, Tonight as we lay, Tonight as we dream, Tonight we will pray. A beloved mother and grandmother, A beloved great-grandmother of mine, A beloved person to us all. We have been but victims of a crime.
