“Mom, though you’re no longer physically with us, we find comfort knowing you’re now in the loving embrace of the Lord. Your spirit lives on in our hearts, and your legacy of love will guide us always. We miss you dearly, but we rejoice in the peace you have found in Heaven.”
A love eternal, through joy and strife, as husband and wife, you shared a life, Now reunited, in heaven’s sweet kiss, In tender silence, your love, I miss.
