Lord we are hurting right now. We miss our mother dearly. We know she is in heaven with You, but we'd like to have her back here on earth with us. We are asking You to heal our hurting hearts. Please fill our hearts with Your love pushing out all the grief and sorrow. And Lord help us reach out to others who are grieving. Let Your love and comfort flow through us. As she was our mother she is also Your child. So Lord, thank you for our blessed mother for she will be greatly missed by us all. We love you God. In Loving Memory of Our Precious Mother.

God sent an angel to this earth,
I called you Mother who raised me from birth
You listened to me through laughter and tears,
and were there for me for so many years
Now what can I say?
For God has taken my angel away
The most giving woman I've ever known,
but now our Lord has called you home
A life eternal in His loving care,
by His grace one day I'll see you there
Goodbye for now, Mom, until we meet again;
My angel, my mother, and my best friend.
