Now residing in our hearts mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.
If roses grow in heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my mother's arms
and tell her they’re from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there’s an ache within my heart
that will never go away.


Condolences
