Years of striving, little of play, loving and giving the whole of the way. A cherished smile, a heart of gold, to the dearest Mom, the world could hold. Happy memories, fond and true, from us who thought the world of you, of happy days when we were together. With aching hearts we whisper low, God Bless you. Mom. We will miss you so. Father in Heaven, hear our prayers, guard our Mother with tender care. Be a good shepherd, dont leave her alone, love her as we loved her, when our Mom was here at home. All who knew her, Loved her. With heartfelt thanks to all the staff at the Tuxedo Villa Personal Care Home. Arrangements entrusted to: CHAPEL LAWN FUNERAL HOME CEMETERY AND CREMATORIUM 885-9715
