Happy for Laverne to have a new home, she’s earned her reward.
to reminisce of times gone by.
I wasn’t there to make you smile,
to tell old stories, laugh awhile.
I wasn’t there to talk of fun,
the happy times in life’s long run.
I wasn’t there to share the years,
those times of happiness and tears.
I wasn’t there to hear your fear
of leaving those you held so dear.
I wasn’t there to feel your pain,
you knew we’d never meet again.
I wasn’t there to hold your hand
when you parted from this land.
I wasn’t there to share our love,
before you joined the stars above.
I wasn’t there, I shed a tear.
In my heart you’re always there.
Granny. You are so loved and will be missed by all who knew you.

Danny, Sharon, Karen, Dennis, and Steve, I’m so sorry for the loss of your mom. She was a great lady, and a dear friend to my family, especially to my mom when my dad passed. Your families are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Love and prayers,
