She was getting blind and deaf, and her legs were giving out,
But she still loved nothing better than having family about.
Visits on the telephone remained a most welcome treat.
She could often hear better from her comfy easy seat.
She could no longer see to sew or even watch TV,
Hearing talkingbooks no long a possibility
But her mind continued on as sharpas it could be,
And in her head, the memories lived on so vividly.
Beloved mother, grandmother, great and great-great as well,
Cherished younger sister to Margery just down the hall,
The two foregathered daily to discuss old times and new,
Remembering friends and family now grown so sadly few.
We sat and watched beside her as her life ebbed t its close,
Gladly would we have suffered the pains that were her only foes.
We talked and joked, remembered, as we have so oft have done before,
Our laughter with tears was seasoned as her spirit neared the door.
She left us very quietly, serene until the end.
We could not wish it otherwise for our Mom and greatest friend.
She wil rest quite peacefully at dear old Cannington.
Among so many she loved before their lives were done.
Our memories will bring comfort as we bid our sad farewell,
And wil be shared and treasured as her tales we will retell.
Her strength, her wit, her love, and dare I say, tenacity,
Will be with us forever as her lasting legacy.
We love you Mom and miss you, and will 'til times grows nigh
When we hope that we will join you in that dear 'sweet by and by'
