Mary, loving daughter, mom and wife
So strong, organized, full of life.
Optimist, gregarious, always a smile
Helping make our lives worthwhile.
Loving daughter, mom and wife
Leading such a full and productive life
Suddenly your life hung by a thread
While your family kept watch beside your bed.
You hovered between life and death
But today you took your final breath.
A better place you now help run
Knowing you, Mary, You're having fun.
Homeschool Queen, Goji girl
You were truly a living pearl.
It's hard for us to day goodbye
Just thinking about it makes me cry.
Dear Mary, wife, daughter, sister, cousin, niece, and friend
So strong and brave until the end.
You touched us all with your smile and grace
And made our world a better place.
In a quiet room, the celebration began
Without loud shouts, without a band.
As it was on the first Christmas so long ago,
There was no fanfare, there was no snow.
There was no need for sparkling lights
For her eyes shone with His love inside
There was no need for gifts and bows
Her gift was the Lord, the fairest rose
There was no need for sermons of giving
When all about her the gospel was living
In the hearts and touches of family and friends
Who came and enjoyed their time to spend
There was no need for cookies and ham
She was ready to taste from the great I am
He filled her spirit and fed her with bread
What a heavenly, delectable spread.
So in this season, from this year forward
Let us look to heaven and thank the Lord
For the season she modeled, in every way
She was Mary Christmas, each moment, each day.
