In loving memory of Shirley Smith, who passed away one year ago today.

To our dear granddaughter,

The words cannot explain.

How different our lives have been

Since God took you home with Him.

When He gave you to us,

No promises were made

As to how long we would have you,

Though twenty-three years seems short,

How enriched our lives have been,

To have those wonderful memories,

All the laughter and love we shared.

The one thing we can count on

Is seeing you again.

We'll meet at Heaven's gate:

Our love shining ever more.
