mom and stepdad,
who did there best,
to raise us right,,
time would come for them to leave,
cancer and tumors,
would take there lifes,,
everthing they taught us
couldn't help them both,
Gods hands they would be,
forever amen,
doctors say go home,
nothing we can do,
to late or to scared,
tears fall from there eye,
today, tomorrow, when?,
when will the phone ring,
when will they say
mom and dad has died,
mom and dad said,
were not afraid,
we taught all 7 of you,
the best way we could,
let us enjoy th time we have,
children down to the greatgrandchildren,
we love you all,,
be not afraid,
we will see you there,
today, tomorrow,when?,,
what will you do when the phone rings?

mom and dad I love you both,,
