A poem to mother about how much she is loved and will be missed.

How Can I Say Goodbye

©  Brinda Carter
Mom its been over a year now since
God and His Angels called you away.
Oh how the Angels rejoiced as you walked
Through those Pearly Gates that day !

Mom when they said you were going to die
I refused to believe it could be true.
How could I allow myself to even
Imagine saying goodbye to you.

Mom you were an Angel here on earth
I learned so very much from you.
You were so gentle and so kind your
Smile would always see me through.

You taught me how to love unconditionally
And how to be my very best in all I do.
You gave your all to God and your family
Never once stopping to think about you.

You were more than a mother you were my
Best friend and a great listener too.
Oh how I miss our special talks, and
All the fun things we used to do.

Mom I can never say goodbye to you,
Because I could never bear the pain.
Instead I say I love you Mom
Until we meet again.

A Tribute To My Mom Ina Marie Hanks Crowder

I am coming up on the first year anniversary of losing my precious mother who was taking from me too soon from an illness that will soon take me too. There has not been one day since her passing that I have not cried and wondered why such a beautiful soul had to go. No matter how old you are your mother is the one constant in your life and when she is gone there is a whole in your soul that can never be filled. I miss you Mama.

I lost my mother to lung cancer on October 25, 2006. She had been diagnosed with it on January 1st of that year. It was a long hard struggle, for all of us. I just read this poem you wrote for your mother and I couldn't help but think how much it parallels my own thoughts and feelings. I am planning my wedding, to take place in September, and her absence is felt all the more. My sincere condolences on the loss of your mother. May it bring you peace and comfort to know that she is walking with Jesus. One day we will be with them again and NOTHING will ever part us again.

God Bless!

Our Mother was taken from us way to soon! Her life was just beginning again they said 2 days to 2 weeks, she loved us everyday for 5 months! Mothers are the one constant reminder of where we came from, where to go and that unconditional love no matter what you do or say! My sister and I share a special bond that will never be broken we gave up our own families and moved in to take care of her! Her only wish was to have her only two daughters by her side looking after her until she passed. We fulfilled this promise and she went to a better place with us holding onto her up until her last breath. We love her now and forever and there is not a moment that goes by that we don't remember something special you have said or done! God Bless you Mom! We love you with all our hearts!
