Your eyes warm us

Never thought I’d see you leave

Always on stage

Hosting family and friends

On the phone

Listening, encouraging, consoling

Always we were in your arms

Being held with your love

Always you listened, not judging

Today is the first Thanksgiving

Without you sitting at our table

Though there you are with your soft eyes

Always, always still warming us

While happy or sad

Today it seems we still need your love

More than ever

Tears and smiles seem to mark our existence

Though I called you Mom

Many younger ones called you

Grandma ma Mary!

Thank you so much Mom!

Love you forever
