To The Love Of Our Life
You have been there for us through thickness and thin Helping out everyone up until the end. There aren't nay words that could wipe away our pain. The memory of your life is the only thing keeping us sane. You are the backbone of the family, the cream of the crop. The Love that we share will never stop. We've had our good times riding around paying bills. And we've had our bad times, the many
times you've fallen ill.
But we know that you are In heaven looking down at us today. And we know that you can hear us, every night that we pray.
