We miss you dearest Grandma
Since God called out your name
In Life we loved you
dearly
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you did not go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us tender memories
Your love has been our guide
And though we cannot see you
You're always by our side.
Our family chain is
broken
And nothing seems the same
But God calls us one by one
The chain will link again.
