      Mom (Author Unknown) We still see your face before us. Your voice we long to hear. We miss and love you dearly. God knows, we wish you were here. Tears fall freely from our eyes, like a river, filled with grief. Our only comfort now, is that, From pain, you've found relief.

      We love you Mom! Until we meet again, see you later.
