In loving memory of our wonderful aunt and sister, Darlene Pennington, who passed way three years ago today.

If tears could build a stairway,

And memories were a lane,

I would walk right up to heaven

To bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken,

No time to say goodbye.

You were gone before I knew it,

And only God knows why.

My heart still aches in sadness

And secret tears still flow,

What it meant to lose you,

No one will ever know.

You and angels around God's happy throne

I would have held you closer if I had known.
