God looked around his garden and found an empty space. Then He looked down upon this earth and saw your tired face. He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest. God's garden must be beautiful He only takes the best. Will never for get you mum, luv Margaret xxxx

Your Mom seemed like such a joyful person, game for any highjinks you two could get up to. You will greatly miss her companionship. I will offer prayers for all three of you asking for the pain to ease, and her fun-loving ways to continue through you.

If roses grow in heaven, Lord, pick a bunch for me ~ Place them in my Mother's arms & tell her they're from me ~ Tell her that I love & miss her, & when she turns to smile ~place a kiss upon her cheek & hold her for a while ~ Because remembering her is easy ~I do it everyday ~ There's an ache within my heart that will never go away

I wish Heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of you today, but that is nothing new, I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, ...from which I'll never ...part. God has you in his arms, I have you in my heart. Missing you on mother's day ..... Luv Margaret xxx

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered "come to me." With tearful eyes I watched you, and saw you pass away. Although I loved you dearly, I could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke my heart to prove to me, He only takes the BEST. Still thinking about you constantly mum and missing you so much. It's so much harder than I thought it would be not having you around. Luv Margaret xxxx

Yellow roses grow in heaven, Lord pick a bunch for me. Place them in my mother's arms and tell her they're from me. Tell her that I love and miss her. When she turns to smile place a kiss upon her cheek & hold her for awhile, because remembering her is easy, I do...it every day. There's an ache... in my heart that will never go away. I love you mum more each day.

Well mum...it's a year today since you left us and I am thinking about you very much today. There is still a big hole in our household without you and I miss you every day and all the things we used to do together. I still can't believe that you are gone. In memory.... Your loving daughter Margaret. xxxx and son-in-law Tony.
