Elegant memories of

Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floral piece, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you prayed a sincere prayer or came to pay a call. Perhaps you sang a cheerful song, if so, we heard it all. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words, as any friend could say. Perhaps you prepared a tasty dish, or maybe furnished a car. Perhaps you rendered a service unseen, near at hand or from afar. Whatever you did to console our hearts, by word or deed or touch. Whatever was the kindly part, we thank you, oh so very much.

SPECIAL TRIBUTE

WRITTEN BY ZSAMIA BARNES

A mom is one of life's best gifts, Someone to treasure all life through, She's caring and loving, Thoughtful and true,

In dark places, she made light Walking in confidence and speaking without fear Houses, she made a home Comforting, nurturing, and protecting Children, she raised; sons and daughters More than just her own Her warmth cultivated family Her faith kept her strong Her voice commanded respect We'll bond over the memories, when we take time reflect To be felt, but not present Loving, but not in reach Your flame will remain lit within us And all of your ways, we will continue to teach.

Someone who is always a special part of your life, Someone who holds a prime place in your heart, She's a mentor, a confident and also a friend, Someone on whose love you can depend. A mom always has your best interests at heart, She's someone so dear and so good,

She's a blessing, she's a gift, She's a treasure like no other,

She's someone that is truly wonderful. Wherever you go, and whatever you do, A mom’s love will always see you through, A mom is truly invaluable,

Indispensable and unforgettable. I wouldn't want anyone but you, And that's why I'm so grateful, that life picked you for me.

Your Children Tameika, Lakee and Doniee
