Stella Myles
Strong willed and always determined to succeed
Always giving one hundred percent to anyone in need
True to her herself and her heart no matter what
Never questioning her values - no ifs ands or buts
Everyone around her knows she's a gentle soul
Never letting life's obstacles take control
Loving and nurturing to family and friends
Her generosity and warmth knows no ends
Learning from her wisdom and pure grace
She teaches us to travel through life at our own pace
A true privilege to know this woman of beauty
Never has she been conceited or even snooty
Many lives are better because she cared
Not afraid to help - her shoulder she always shared
Years of memories she has tucked safely away
Simple pleasures such as watching her children play
Life has been full and rewarding - she cherishes every precious day
Trying to recall the happy moments and funny lines family would say
Everyone who knows her - can't help but smile
Having her by their side made life worthwhile
Sincere and genuine her nature so true
Her beautiful smile helps chase away the blues
Loved always by family and friends near and dear
Praying for her suffering to come to an end
Knowing that the next journey she never feared
Life's road and time's cruel hand has taken its toll
Ravishing this gentle and fragile soul
Weary body and tired mind silently plea for a gentle release
Hoping soon to finally be called home and at peace
