In Loving Memory of Mom...: Merry Christmas...

Merry Christmas...

'Twas two days before Christmas and through the house
the family was scurry all about.
The Struffola's were done, all fried in a bowl.
While memories of Mom clung close to home.
The cookies were baked, the food has been ordered, but there's still something missing, more than you'll ever know.
There’ll be one missing this Christmas, one place at table, bare.
One smiling face we’ll yearn for just knowing you’re not there.
Voices soft, diminished, we’ll sing a Christmas song, hoping next year’s easier, for you haven’t been gone long.
The joy of your great laughter as the children gathered ‘round.
Your spirit will be here in revelry and sound.
We'll miss you this Christmas, oh Mom, yes we will.

We'll miss you so deeply and that I hope you know.

~~~~~~~~~~

Merry Christmas in Heaven!

Love, Christine

Found this website and had to stop and read. My mom passed away 12/23/2008. She died of cancer, so it was no surprise. But Christmas was her favorite time of the year."I. miss her and know that there will always be a void and "something missing" It is so difficult to be a daughter without a mother.
