A poem written by her granddaughter Meg Pie

We have a guardian angel

She was sent from heaven

Up above, to protect us

Every day and to shine over us like the sun.

Like a butterfly that flies

Away your spirit lives on

Every day, and we’ll always be connected by love

Together in some way.

They say there is a reason

And they say that time will

Heal but neither time or

Reason will change the way

We feel.

Those special memories of

You will always bring a smile.

If only we could have you

Back for just a little while.

Your memory is our

Keepsake, with which well

Never part.

God has you in his keeping,

We have you in our hearts.

Your words “I’ve always

Been your angel” will forever

Remain, we’ll cherish our last

Moments each and every day.

Each moment till that day

Arrives until my time is

Through. I’ll miss you more

Than words can say and

always think of you.

I’ll look for you among the

Stars in each dawn’s pastel

Sky, and whisper words of

Love to you but never say

Goodbye.
