''When my life ended and I cross the swelling tide, When the bright and glorious morning I shall see, 1 shall know my Redeemer when I reach the other side

"Mother's The Roots, We are the Branches".
We are fooling ourselves when we say, Mom only exist in the Photograph On the Mantel, Or in the outline of our hands. She lives on beneath Everything we do. Her presence influenced Who we are, And her absence influence Who we is. Our lives are shaped As much by those Who leave us, as they are, By those who stay. Loss is our legacy, Insight is our gift, Memory is our guide. We love you MOM.
Lovingly submitted, YOUR CHILDREN
