Mom, this is one sole occasion
To give you a tribute
To express all that’s in our hearts
But failed to verbalize when you’re still full of life
We want to offer you homage
To your remarkable journey here on earth
We want to pay you great honor and respect
And acknowledge the meaning of your earthly existence
We’re your privileged children
We're abundantly blessed by your maternal passion
By your sacrifice and perseverance
You've have given us hope and touched our lives
You have always been a refuge
Our strength, our stronghold
Our light and source of inspiration
Everything a devoted mother should be
We have been blessed
By your commitment and dedication
By your loyalty and faithfulness
You've lavished us with your unconditional love
You have always been there for us
A considerate and doting mommy
A mother who chose to take our side
Come hell or high water
You showed us that caring heart
Compassionate, thoughtful and staunch
The qualities more precious
Than any treasures we may uncover
You're truly a mensch
Who have dealt life's intricacies head-on
A petite yet brave and tough woman
Who've spent years tending to our needs
And, Yes, “You are Timeless!”
Your beauty, charm and grace
The epitome of elegance
Transcends all time and space
You’re God’s precious gift to us
And to this day within our lives
We will cherish the gift
As long as we live
This is also an occasion of thanksgiving
For your steadfast patronage and fervent care
Thank you for all the treasured memories
and for taking the journey with us over all these years
Thank you for giving us the zeal
To bond us together in ardor and love
You’re the Heart of hearts
In greater ways than ever before
Thank you for giving moral or practical support
For extending a helping hand to guide our steps
To spread our wings and fly
To ultimately mature and blossom
We thank you and Dad for impressing upon us
A solid and sure foundation
Upon which to raise our own families
A lasting legacy to pass on to the next generation
Thank you for instilling in us God’s enduring principles
The precepts on how to live
This, too, is another lasting legacy
For your children, grandchildren, siblings ...
We're overflowing with gratitude
You became our own priceless gem
You’re the best partner our departed Dad could ever have
The greatest mother and lola God has bestowed us
Your dedication to family was incomparable
You've left with us
A strong chain of love that can never be broken
And you will be desperately missed by us all.
Know that your love and devotion will keep on
Forever binding and uniting us together
As God’s goodness and mercy flow
In rivers of living water
We shall keep in mind
The key role you have played
In jovial get-together and bonding moments
That never failed to give a sense of family solidarity
We shall always remember
The happy bygone days
The joys of spring you've brought about
In oh so many ways
We've learned so much from you
You will always remain our guiding light
We'll endlessly proclaim that you're our dearly beloved mother
Who've constantly filled us with so much pride
Mom, don’t worry about us - Time will heal our wounds
We'll have peace and comfort knowing in great faith
You are now dancing a new dance; singing a new song up there
Reunited with Dad and home in heaven with God
You may be gone from this earth
But far from gone from our lives
Your principles, Your memory
Will be an eternal flame
One day we’ll be together again
To talk about all the places we’ve been
Until such time we’ll always treasure
You as our great Mom & and the Lola of our children
To talk about all the places we’ve been
Until such time we’ll always treasure
You as our great Mom & and the Lola of our children
So dear Mom please accept our accolades
Heartfelt, sincere and true
We are forwarding these direct to the Heavens
Straight from our hearts to you
Rest now in the loving arms of our Almighty Father
Take our love with you on your journey
Our warmest regards to Dad
We'll desperately miss both of you
Godspeed
