A Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Daughter, Sister, and Best Friend

No matter in which form she came to us

She touched all of our hearts and left a mark that will never be forgotten.

An infectious laugh that brightened our days

A radiant smile that enlightened our ways.

Not a kinder soul in this life

Have we had the honor of knowing.

The love of a heart so pure that she was simply glowing.

She danced through our lives all the while showing

That she was always there and that she will always care.

Leaving her imprint everywhere;

The funny things she said, the kind things she would do;

The secret dreams she had that we never knew.

She left us so suddenly it took our breath away.

When you love someone so much, you wish they could always stay.

She is watching over us now, from the heavens above.

Our guardian Angel

Knowing she is deeply loved.
