If roses grow in heaven Lord, please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my mother's arms and tell her they're from me. Tell her
I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while. Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, but there is an ache within my heart that will never go away.
Love, Janice and all your grandchildren
and great-grandchildren
