Rip Gill

Today we say goodbye to jill
This surely is a bitter pill
A lively lady full of the beans
A cruel world so it seems

A kind hearted lady with lots of love
On her final journey up above
A mother of 4 to say the least
Head of the table at the feast

Witty, funny and caring to all
Enjoy life at the angels ball
Now all the pain you had has gone
Dance with the stars go on go on

A rainbow queen that you were
Brighter than bright what I hear
Life like dolls being your passion
Keeping them into fashion

Other things I know you love
Your grandchildren and daughters above
We'll all miss your thoughtfulness
Even things that made us blush

Your best friend feebie was your pooch 
But definitely not Turner and hooch
Pampered dog with plenty of coats
Miss you on the rainbow floats

So look over us from up there
We all know you do care
When we want reasons why
We will just look up to the sky

Thankyou mum, granny for being you
Now you've gone we are all blue
Wish we could feel your gentle touch 
We LOVE and MISS you so so much
