In loving memory of Jean Lumley

As children, we can't comprehend or fully realize

The meaning of our mother's love, how tender and how wise,

The patience and forgiveness that are part of every day,

The unexpected "little things" she does in her own way.

Years go by before we can look back on life and see

Through older eyes and wiser hearts her love and loyalty,

And yet it's these and other special things we'll hold so dear,

For memories of her steadfast love will keep her ever near.

Holding you close to my heart and missing you very much on this special day.
