Betty

Time has come for you to pass
Your life we celibate 
A special lady we have lost to the pearly gate 

Our sadness floods with memories 
How kind and special you were 
So much a bond since the seventies 

I will miss you greatly as a mum 
I will remember fondly all the fun

Farewell great lady you were the best
May you now have eternal rest
