I want to express my deepest condolences to JoAnn Briggs and family to for the loss of your beloved Mom & Grandma.
Hope you enjoy this poem:
If roses grow in heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me, Place them in your Mom's and/or Grandma's arms and tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy, We do it every day, but there's an ache within our heart that will never go away.
Love Always, Sandra
