In Memory Of My Mother
Mary Louise Trombly
March 6.1925-march 25, 2008

In my grief at losing my Mother, I walked in the Snow Trying to cope and understand how I could'nt’t personally say good by to her.

I looked up at the grey-colored sky, as I shivered in the cold, With tears streaming down my face and a broken heart.

My mind flashed back to all the memories we shared, even across the miles. The laughter, the serious talks and the many special occasions.

Then I saw You, Lord, with your footprints in the snow, so soft and so light. Like a gentle touch that comes in the midst of pain and sorrow or the
darkest night.

Lord, I said, “Why could I not say good by to my mom the way I wanted to? Why did my physical limitations keep me from traveling so far to be by her side?”

He took me and lifted me in to His arms and carried me through the snow, as he explained why thing were the way they were.

He said, “Daughter, you did say good by to your mother.” I said to him, “How can this be? I do not understand.”

He held me a little tighter and said, “You said good-by to her by what you did when you told her you loved her.” You said good- by to her by telling her she was free to come unto me and you would take care of your father for her. You said good-by with the hymns you sang to her in her ear each day on the phone; even when you were not sure she could even hear them.” She did. “Daughter, I was with you when you knew the week and a half before she died that she would and you cried. I held you in my arms and cried with you.”

Then He said, “The years will come and go from here but I will always be with and carry you when you need to be carried. I have been with you all these years, as you have been with me. As I carry you with one set of footprints in the snow, so shall you continue to walk in my footsteps all the days of your life.”

Always with Love & Hugs;

In His Service;

Wonderful Legacy

There Is A Wonderful Legacy
Of Which I Wish To Tell
About A Beautiful Lady
That We Loved So Well
Her Strength Lives Within Us
And Grows Stronger Each Day
Her Honor Still Lingers
Though Her Life Has Slipped Away
I Miss The Sound Of Her Laughter
And Her Stern Lectures Too!
I Miss Hearing Her Say, “I Love You”
She Fought A Good Battle
Then Gave Up The Fight
To Rest In The Arms Of Jesus
What A Beautiful Sight
In Our Hearts Her Memory
Will Always Stay
Nothing Could Ever Take
Her Remembrance Away

We Send To Our Loving Grandmother In Heaven

Loving you Always Grandma Your Grandchildren& Great Grandchildren

Please add a prayer by going home....
