Betty L. Fallecker

Betty L. Fallecker

In loving memory of our beloved mother, Betty L. Fallecker, who passed away four years ago.

January 27, 1927 — January 25, 2008

A face that is always on my mind

A smile I have seen a million times.

Two eyes that would light up the sky at night

One last battle you could not fight.

The day was long, then night, then morn,

I knew that soon you would be gone,

I clasped your hand softly in mine,

Soon we would be out of time

To stay with us you fought so hard,

A million pieces went my heart.

Now a photo I look at to see your smile

I keep your memories in my mind on file.

A video I watch to hear your voice,

This I do. . . I have no choice.

But great memories I will always keep with me,

Your love in my heart for eternity.

I never got to say goodbye,

To understand why, I can but try,

Waiting in Heaven from this moment on,

‘Til God asks you, to bring me home.
