Gertrude Cherry
IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our beloved Mother Gertrude Cherry who passed away one year ago on September 1, 2013.

Your mother is always with you...

She’s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street.

She’s the smell of the bleach of your freshly laundered sheets.

She’s the cool hand on your brow when you are not well.

Your mother lives inside your laughter and your tears.

She’s the place you came from, your first home.

She’s the map you follow... with every step that you take.

She’s your first love and your first teacher and nothing on earth can separate you.

Not time, nor space, not even death will ever separate you from your mother...

You carry her inside of you...

This is a loving tribute to Gertrude Cherry, a wonderful mother, grandmother and friend who is forever and always in our hearts.
