Memorial
Our mother kept a garden
A garden of the heart;
She planted all the good things,
That gave our lives their start.
She turned us to the sunshine
And encouraged us to dream;
Fostering and nurturing
The seeds of self-esteem.
And when the winds and rain came,
She protected us enough;
But not too much because she knew
We would stand up strong and tough.
Her constant good example,
Always taught us right from wrong;
Markers for our pathway that will last
a lifetime long.
We are our mother's garden,
We are her legacy.
Thank you mother we love you.
Your children,
George, Joe, Ruthie, Pearl, Dannie, June, Billy, Abby, Willie
