Mom, you had the sweetest soul we have ever known. Thank you for always loving us, as Jesus does...unconditionally. Until we meet again, “On the other, side of the Moon”, in Heaven, your sweet memory will live on in our hearts. 

 

God saw her getting tired,

and a cure was not to be, 

so He put His arms around her

and whispered 

“Come to Me.”

With weeping hearts and tearful eyes

we watched her suffer, and

saw her slowly fade away,

although we loved her dearly,

God had eternal plans for our Mother, Clara May.

Her golden heart stopped beating,

her sweet soul was put to rest,

with angels wings and escort, 

God has taken home His best.

 

We miss you, and love you forever Mom
