I f we could bring you back again, for one more hour or day, we'd express all our unspoken love; we'd have countless things to say.
If we could bring you back again, we'd say we treasure you, and that your presence in our lives meant more than we ever knew.
If we could bring you back again, to tell you what we should, you'd know how much we miss you now, and if we could, we would. - Your Family
Words cannot adequately express the gratitude of our hearts for all expressions of kindness, and concerns shown during the illness and passing of our loved one. May God bless you and heaven's blessings be upon you. - The Family

You can only have one m other Patient, kind and true;
No other frien d in all the world, Will be the sam e to you.
When other friends forsake you, To m oth er you will return; For all her loving kindness, She asks nothing in return. As I look upon her picture, Sweet m em ories I recall; Of a face so full o f sunshine, And a sm ile for one and all.
Sweet Jesus take this message, To my d ea r m other up above;
Tell h er how I m iss her, And give her all my love.

You were alw ays there fo r me, When no one else seem ed to care;
You took tim e to really listen, To thoughts I h a d to share.
Your steadfast love still strengthens me, W hether my battles are lost or won;
Your words o f wisdom still shine in my life, When clouds block out the sun.
And as I offer you, mother-in-law, My expressions o f love and praise,
I know Heaven too honors you, For your kind and thoughtful ways.
