In loving memory of Katherine E. Herlinger whose birthday is March 21.

Though these occasions are never easy,

We manage to “muddle through,”

Guided by the strength and courage,

We learned so lovingly from YOU!

And even though the tears fall as we sit,

And reminisce, we cry, we laugh, we talk,

About all the things we miss:

Your laugh, your love, your witty ways,

And how you were there for us, always!

Your beauty, your strength, your caring heart,

The love you showed still plays its part.

Though now our hearts may ache with loss,

Your sweet memory guides us through,

Forever loved, forever near,

Happy Birthday, Mom- we celebrate YOU!

With our love,

David, MaryAnn, Alex, Shawna and Adam
