Although you’re gone, I’m not alone,
And never shall I be,
For the precious memories of the bond we shared
Will never depart from me.
Our love surpassed the ups and downs
And helped us along the way,
And that same love will give me strength
To manage this loss each day.
On my mind and in my heart,
Mom, you shall forever be,
For just as much as I am a part of you,
You are a part of me!
Love you forever mom,
Your daughter Carol
So sorry for the lose of such a sweet lady. Winnie was a wonderful neighbor and my love and prayers are sent for her and her family.
