In Memory of Ethel Mae Keith (Nanny) for her birthday



In Memory of our mother, Ethel Mae Keith

You were a special gift from God above;

So much beauty, grace and love...

You touched our hearts in so many ways;

your smile so bright even on the 'bad' days.

You heard God's whisper calling your name,

You didn't want to go and leave us alone

You loved us so much, you had to fight

'til all the strength was gone and you knew that it was right,

Right to let go and give God his chance, to show his everlasting love

And all of his almighty light

He had called your name (at least) twice before

You knew you coudn't make Him wait anymore.

So you gave your hand to God, and slowly drifted away,

Knowing that with our love we will be together someday.

Love is endless, Mom....Jo-Ann, Kristi, John, and all the rest of 'yours'
