Dedication To A Friend

You have touched our lives
In so many different ways
A caring loving mother
Who offered the tender comfort
And the warm hugs
A wonderful grandmother
With proud shining eyes
And wisdom to share
A supportive friend
Who always offered a smile
And a gracious helping hand
A devoted wife
With a heart full of love
To last all your days
We will miss your loving ways
Your smile, the songs you used to
Sing with such beauty and grace
Your strong spirit and belief in God
Most of all, we will miss your heart


This is for a my best friend's mother. She passed away Tuesday afternoon.

It's so sad when you lose such an important figure in life... I thought this was wondeful the way you covered all the fine qualities of this person and very kind of you to pay tribute to your friend's mother....keep up the good work!!

An angel is smiling down at such a loving friend. I know she is glad to know her family will not be alone.

This is a beautiful tribute, well done.

Rosepetals--

number one i love your name...this poem
was as beautiful and delicate as the first
opening of a freshly bloomed rose. a very
loving and special tribute to someone who
was very close to you. hugs to you and your
friend. i know how hard these things can be.
my prayers are with them and all the lives
this special lady touched. take care.

Once upon a time there was a light in my life, now theres only love in the dark, There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart.
