Legacy of Love

Time may seem as if it steals.
Time will tell if it heals; how it can take it's toll.
Though never may remove a mothers love 
                within ones soul.

            Goodbye is never easy    
           A so-long-for-now will do. 
      All the memories we will cherish. 
     Though are many seemed to few.
           
           God placed you on this earth
          as a gift to all you would touch.
Loving wife, cherished mother, and loyal friend...
              to all you meant so much.

 A guardian angel in waiting, guiding, protecting and never wavering.

           As a beacon through the darkest night,
                 a comforter til mornings light,
 there you always were and in our hearts you'll always be.

        Through the faith you shared with all you loved 
            one day we know we'll see you high above.

          Until we meet again, may your 
                garden in heaven grow;
        and may you look down upon our
          faces with so much love to show.
