“A Letter from Heaven” read by Sarah Todd
When tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not here to see,
if the sun should rise and find your eyes,
filled with tears for me.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things,
we didn't get to say.
When tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right there in your heart.
Thank you mother - for all that you have done,
You took great care, of your daughters and son,
Thank you mother, for being strong,
While trying to teach us right from wrong.
If anytime, we had a problem,
You were there to help us solve them.
You'd lift us up when we were feeling blue,
Thank you mother, for we could always count on you,
You were such - an awesome mother,
The love you showed was like no other.
Thank you mother - for your dear, sweet love,
Now you'll watch us from heaven above.

Her Journey’s Just Begun
By Ellen Brenneman
Don't think of her as gone away
her journey has just begun
life holds many facets
the Earth is only one
Just think of her as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years
Think how she must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched
For nothing loved is ever lost
And she was loved so much.
Helen’s family thanks you sincerely for your attendance and support
today and invites you to join them for refreshments
and further reminiscences of Helen at the Ettalong Bowling Club in
Springwood Avenue following the service.
