Sweet Memories

Of our mother

Elene Cooper Royal May 9, 1909 – May 9, 1998

We never stopped to realize

The love that mothers show, With gentle hands and guiding words

To help us learn and grow.

We never stopped to think about

How many heartfelt ways, Our mother gave us strength for life

With hope and dreams and praise.

We did not realize until

We were grown and gone, The countless gifts our mother gave

Last on and on and on….

Your loving children
