Soar with the Eagles
Mama, I long to hear your voice every day, feel your touch and just be in your presence. Although I know our time has come to an end, I can't help but to be jealous that heaven gets to see your beautiful smile every day. As the tears fall
from my face, I will always remember the fun times you and I had, the laughter we shared, you calling to see how my workday went and how the kids are doing. I will forever cherish these moments that I no longer will have with you. I find comfort in knowing you are no longer in pain and that you are at peace now. One of your favorite sayings was, "I can't soar with Eagles on account of messing around with a bunch of Turkeys," I know for sure you are now soaring high with those Eagles. Fly high mama until we meet again, I will love you forever and always.
