This is the legacy we have from you
You taught us to love and how to fight
You gave us strength, you gave us might
Strong person would be hard to find
And in our heart, you were always kind
You fought for us all in one way or

Not just Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Aunt
or friend……

accepted the ride”
Even the greatest sorrows
Are easier to bear
When shared in loving sympathy
By those who truly care.
