"She'll be one of God's strongest angel's.

No more burdens will she bear.

She'll stroll about with strength and grace,

Kneeling with God in prayer.

So if you see my mom in heaven,

Will you take care of her for me?

Place a kiss upon her cheek,

And hug her just for me."

I'll Love You Forever Mama💗
