'eat'
We wanted to let you know how much of a won-
rful women you are. The conversations and the wis-
m you bestowed upon us made us wise beyond our
ars.
The hugs, the kisses, the love, the sweetest you
owed toward us could never ever be replaced. It is
hard for us to say goodbye without our eyes full of
irs, but God needed you more than we ever could.
We thank God everyday for giving us a gift as
eat as you. There is nothing better we could have
er asked for. We scream, thank you for giving each
id every one of us our very own special piece of you
itil we all meet again, we love you.
God has called me home
but do not feel sad
For the time we have shared
has made me so glad
I am so proud to see you ail living
your lives to the best of your abilities
Just know I will always be with you spiritually
Though you cannot see me physically
I tell you to cherish your memories
For the thought that is combined
with the emotional tough
Physically hug the ones I love so much
My children I tell you all to prepare for life
for its holds many suprises.
And anything out of the ordinary
that catches your eye is just me
in one of my many disguises.
Now you ail known I am never afraid
to say what I mean
For the wisdom that flows elevates
the words that I preach
So hear me as I speak
and repeat after me
Now even though I rest
in peace is what I depise
Im on a higher plane now baby
and heaven is paradise
I ensure I am great
no need to worry about me
All shall be well. I promis^^ all shall see.
