Our hearts are still hurting; our eyes are still shedding tears.
We have gone through life without you, for yet another year.
There is not a day that does not go by
That we do not think about you and we cry
When we look into the mirror, we see your eyes.
As time goes on, it is still hard to realize.
We think of you often, that loving smile upon your face
Thinking of you with our Lord, now living in his embrace.
We do not know how long this journey will take
But we do know it is a journey which everyone must make.
Your children love you — Tom, Beverly, Wanda, James, Charles, Sandra, Veda and Shana — because when we look at each other, we see a part of you, Mama.
