'THOTZSZ'
(Gone But Not Forgotten)
Mom, you've always been there
On you we could depend
You're more than Just a Mother
You've also been a friend
Your Special Kind of Laughter
Would brighten up the day
To brush the tears away
W e may not say it often
But maybe we can show it
W e Love You for the things you are
And only hope you know it

Special Thanks - We would like to express our deepest appreciation for the food, cards, flowers, visits and prayers during our time of bereavement. May God continue to Bless each of you. Again, Thank-you. The Family
