"In quiet moments, we hear your voice, A love unyielding, a life's choice, Your strength and wisdom, a beacon bright, We miss you dearly, through day and night. Gone from this world, yet forever near, A guiding spirit, in every tear, We miss you, strong woman, a love so true, In the whispers of the wind, we'll find you."
