Alice will be missed,but she is with my mom again and I am sure they are having a great time.
She was a lovely gracious lady. I’m sorry I didn’t stay in touch,but I’ll miss her
Mother is with many who have been waiting for her …she has been made whole and free to be again.
Dear Mom,
I thought we had more time.
I thought you’d see more babies born
and hear more church bells chime.
I thought we’d play more gin,
root for each other to win…
then deal the cards again.
I thought I’d watch you embroider more
of the pillowcases I adore.
I thought we’d watch more soaps by day,
and laugh at Raymond’s family more nights;
I thought we’d watch more snow fall
and string more Christmas lights.
I thought you’d have more visits
with family and friends,
more time to talk with loved ones…
I did not sense the end.
But it was near…
the signs were there,
I’m glad I got to cut your hair,
and cook your favorite food that night…
serve you your favorite bedtime snack–
I know you knew I had your back.
So when you drifted off
into a sleep that was sublime,
You knew you would be going Home…
I thought we had more time.
True love never dies, we will look forward to meeting her again someday, after all she is just away.
