Mom
In Memory Of Our Mother
Arleen Briscoe
10/03/1938 ~ 05/23/2002
If tears could build a stairway
and heartaches make a lane,
we'd walk the path to Heaven
and bring you back again.

A heart of gold stopped beating
A shining smile at rest
God broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.

Our family chain is broken
and nothing seems the same,
But God will call us one by one,
And the chain will link again.


The Day God Called You Home
Dedicated to our Mother

God looked around His garden,
And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this Earth,
And saw your tired face.

He put His arms around you,
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He always takes the best.

He knew you were suffering.
He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never
Get well on Earth again.

He saw that the road was getting rough,
And the hills were hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered, "Peace be Thine."

It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.


In Memory Of Grandma
Written by her loving Grandson
Joe Aquilina
All the memories we've had
Filled up with tears
You were a great Grandma

No words can describe
How good you treated everyone.

I'm broken hearted as I glance through all these years,
But you've comforted me with happy tears.

Just because you're not on Earth
You will still be in my heart.
So keep in mind how much I love you,
And I will never forget you.
I LOVE YOU GRANDMA

Forever In Our Hearts
Your First Birthday In Heaven
10/03/2002
We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And the days before that, too.

We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have are memories,
And your picture in a frame.

Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
God has you in His Keeping.
We have you in our Heart.
Missing You On Your Birthday And Forever

I Have a Place in Heaven
Author Unknown
Please don't sing sad songs for me
Forget your grief and fear
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears...

It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
with the Master at my side.

My life on Earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know...

My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.
If Roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for us,
Place them in our Mother's arms
and tell her they're from us.
Tell her we love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy,
We do it every day,
but there's an ache within our hearts
that will never go away.
Goodbye Mom
 We Love You & Miss You
My First Christmas With Jesus
In Memory Of Mom At Christmastime
12/25/02
I see the countless Christmas trees
around the world below
With tiny lights, like Heaven's stars,
reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
please wipe away the tear
For I am spending Christmas with
Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear
But the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir here.
I have no words to tell you,
the joy their voices bring,
For it is beyond description,
to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart.
But I am not so far away,
We really aren't apart.
So be happy for me, dear ones,
You know I hold you dear.
And be glad I'm spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I sent you each a special gift,
from my heavenly home above.
I sent you each a memory
of my undying love.
After all, love is a gift
more precious than pure gold.
It was always most important
in the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other,
as my Father said to do.
For I can't count the blessing or love
He has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas and
wipe away that tear.
Remember, I am spending Christmas with
Jesus Christ this year.
Missing You At Christmas & Always
