Leave a tributeIf only we could have you back for just a little while.
We could sit and talk just like we used to do.
We could have our breakfast on the veranda & laugh a little too.
The fact that you're no longer here will always cause us pain
but you're forever in our hearts until we meet again!
Happy birthday in Heaven. You are truly missed!
