an angel slipped out of heaven
and came down to this old
city and hamlet.
Just as the sun was setting,
he spread his wings and said,
"Now my visit is over and I must go
back to the world of light.
But before I go, I would like to take along
some mementos of my visit here."
He noticed a beautiful flower
garden and said,"How lovely and
fragrant these flowers are."
He plucked the rarest and most
beautiful roses and made a bouquet and said,
"I see nothing more beautiful and fragrant than
these; I will take them back to heaven with me."
Looking on a little further,
he saw a bright-eyed, rosy-cheeked baby,
smiling into its mother's face.
And he said, "Oh, that baby's smile
is even prettier
this bouquet of roses; I will take that, too!"
Then he looked just beyond the
cradle and there was a mother's love pouring out
like the gush of a river toward the
cradle and the baby.
And he said to himself,
"Oh, that mother's love
is the prettiest thing I have seen on earth;
I will carry that, too."
With the three treasures he winged
his way back to heaven.
When he got outside the pearly gates,
he decided to examine
his mementos to see how well they had made the trip.
He looked at the flowers and they had wilted.
He looked at the baby's smile and it had faded.
He looked at the mother's love and it was still there
in all its warmth and in all its pristine beauty.
He threw aside the wilted flowers
and the faded smile, and winged
his way through the gates.
He led all the hosts of heaven
together and said,
"Here is the only thing I found on earth
that would keep its beauty
all the way to heaven ...
It is a Mother's Love."

AND MEMORIES A LANE,
I'D WALK RIGHT UP TO HEAVEN
AND BRING YOU HOME AGAIN........
Linda had a gentle heart
She loved her mom & bros
She was such a kind person
As everyone knows.
Her bubbly laughter would
bring a smile
She cared so much for others
She would go the extra mile
Her Leo the Lion roar
Could be heard all over the place
For you would know what she was up to
By just looking in her face.
She will be missed by many
For she touched most everyone
Her spirit lives within us
It comes out like the sun
Though I never got to meet her
Linda is very special to me
As by what her mother tells
And for what you all can see.

linda, my precious daughter;
not a day nor hour goes by,
that I do not
think of you.....
the pain is just as raw
as ever, and I am
still so sad, and missing
you...............
and wondering why this all happened.....
why the lord
did not take me instead of you.....
linda, you were so kind and caring,
and so fragile.....
I would give anything to have you
here with
me...
looking back, i made mistakes
as a mother...
.my regrets are that
I didnt take more time
to listen,
to understand your pain,
and
loneliness....
.although I believe you knew
how much I loved you,
I wish I
could have
made it so clear,
without a doubt..
...I wish,
I had spent the
last months of
your painful life,
by your bedside;
for in not having
done
this, I will always be in guilt....
.From the moment you were
born,
I was in awe, for a daughter,
i wanted, and nothing more.....
you
were an angel sent
to me by God, and I adored you,
as did Nanny,
and
Papa......your
brother Kenneth, loved you
and idolized you....and
then
your baby brother todd,
looked up at you,
like you were a second
mom.....
.Oh, how sad, we all are, except
that mom, will not ever get
over this, and the hole
in my heart will never heal......
Precious Linda,
a saint you were, in your own right....
you took the pain, without
complain,
as I never will be able to do...
.you left your mark;
you made
a difference,
as nurses, friends,
and the like, still remember you in
awe,
and respect you for all
you went through;
never a complaint,
always kind,
caring and
thinking of everyone but
yourself, right until
your last breath.......
a picture, I will never forget.
I will hold you in
my heart, until we meet again,
with the angels......now with the
millenuim
just weeks away, oh how I
wish you could be here with
us......
for this new decade. I am feeling old,
and tired, and it makes
me even sadder,
to know I am without you....
and that you never got to
see the year 2000....
I love you, Linda........
you will always be a part
of my heart and soul.....
I hope God is keeping you safe,
and peaceful,
surrounded by
heavens angels..
and lots of yellow roses.....
love mom
