MARIE, Michael Peter
Even as the sun goes down, To end the light of day, It’s rising on a new world, Somewhere far away. And though my world is darker, For the loss of one I miss, My loved one’s day is dawning, In a brighter world than this.
Love always, Marion xx.
CHANNING, Berthe (Baba)
In memory of my mother. Wise is my mother who watched me grow, And yet never grew far apart, Strong was my mother who bathed all my wounds, Yet hid her own aching heart. Brave was my mother who cared for her child, Yet let me choose my own way, Courageous was she when setting me down. Never sure by her side I would stay, Good was my mother, who always loved me, Whether I was right or wrong, Kindly was she through years that I’ve grown, Whether I was weak, or strong, Grateful, this child who’s been given this chance, I know you . . . My wonderful mother, I’ve loved you the same way as you have loved me, A bond shared . . . There’s truly no other like a mother’s love.
Your daughter, Jacqueline xxx.
CHANNING, Berthe (Baba)
In loving memory of my mother. Just because I’m old and grey, People don’t listen to what I say, Why can’t they see past the wrinkles?To a life that’s nearly completed full circle?I’ve been a child so trusting and small, I’ve been a teenager and thought I knew all, I’ve been a bride all dressed in white, I’ve been a mother worried in the night, I’ve been a widow and known great sorrow, I’ve been so lonely no thoughts of tomorrow, So when I speak please try and listen, For youth’s the only part that’s missing.
My love for eternity, Suzette x.
CHANNING, Berthe (Baba)
In loving memory of our dear grandmother. Forever in our hearts.
Your loving grandchildren Christian, Tyson and Rebecca xxx.
