Tributes
Leave a tribute"If Roses Grew in Heaven"
Lord, please pick a bunch of roses for me, place them in my Mother's arms, and tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, but there's an ache within my heart, that will never go away.
By your steadfast belief in your faith, you helped me to find my own.
I miss you so much, it hurts sometimes, but then the Cardinals visit the feeder, and I know you are here with me.
Love you and Miss you.
