Mary K. Goodgasell

IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our beloved Mary K. Goodgasell who passed away 15 years ago today. 1919-2019.

Heaven Needed “Mom”

So many things of Mom

I miss,

Her gentle hugs and tender kiss.

I still can feel her warm embrace,

As I picture her beautiful, loving face.

Mom’s tasks were never done,

Yet Heaven must have needed someone.

For Angels came and took her hands,

And led her to God’s

promised land.

She’s surely kept quite busy there,

Brushing all the little

Angel’s hair.

Making sure they’re dressed just right,

Not staying out too late at night.

In Heaven there is no

sadness, this I know.

Mom’s waiting for us there, her face aglow.

I close my eyes and I can see,

Her arms outstretched wide waiting for me.

Sadly missed by Deb,

Buster and Families
