    In Memory Of Irene Martin

    I will always remember you no matter how long we are apart.
    You were always there for me even when I was at my worst
    I may never have been what you hoped I would be yet you loved me none the less
    We have shared too much and that will always last.

    Planting vegetables in the back yard picking the fruit from the trees
    Making wool dogs on the back porch corsages in the dinning room
    Long conversations in the kitchen teaching me of who I should be
    Always willing to help me understand.

    You have laughed and cried with me
    Willing to sacrifice yourself for me when we thought I would not last.
    I was always in your prayers and you were always in mine
    You were my best friend, a mother and I called you Grandma.

    You were always the stable one in my life always a phone call away
    Always willing to tell me the facts no matter how hard they may be
    You have wanted nothing but the best for all of us and I hope this will come to be
    I never wanted to let you down

    You held this family together with love and determination
    Though your world was never easy your pain more then you could sometimes bear
    There was nothing that could compare to the strength you taught me
    I hope one day I can be at least half of who you were to me if not more.

    I did not want to let you go and miss you so much
    Though I know you would never willingly leave us it was your time to go
    But through this time apart there is something I hope you will always know
    I love you Grandma with all my heart.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
