If I should go tomorrow
It would never be goodbye,
For I have left my heart with you.
So don’t you ever cry.
The love that’s deep within me
Shall reach you from the stars,
You’ll feel it from the heavens,
And it will heal the scars. – Unknown

Our sympathies to you in the loss of your Mom.
What a fitting tribute to have her resting place at the lake.
She loved it there and her gardens were a treat to drive by.
Sincerely,
Laurie & Dave Boadway
