Her passing will leave a void in all of our hearts. She was the driving force of the family and will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Mom
You never said I’m leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why.
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart I hold a place
That only you can fill.
It broke my heart to lose you
But you didn’t go alone
A part of me went with you
The day god took you home.
