In loving memory of our beloved wife and mother, Pola Mae Baughman, who passed away four years ago today.

LOVING MEMORIES

Your gentle face and patient smile

With sadness we recall.

You had a kindly word for each,

And died beloved by all.

The voice is mute and stilled the heart,

That loved us well and true,

Ah, bitter was the trial to part

From one so good as you.

You are not forgotten loved one,

Nor will you ever be.

As long as life and memory last,

We will remember thee.

We miss you now, our hearts are sore,

As time goes by we miss you more,

Your loving smile, your gentle face,

No one can fill your vacant place.

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.
