After a 5 year brave battle with cancer mum passed away August 2007. I miss her so much and as Mother's Day looms I haven't a mum to Thank in person.

FOR MUM

 

Thank you for being there

Thank you for showing you care

Thank you for being strong

Thank you for making me belong

Thank you for fighting this

Thank you for every kiss

Thank you for being my mother

Thank you – I would want no other

In loving memory of Erika Oszmann 15th March 1934 - 15th August 2007

That first Mother's Day without my mom was terrible. It didn't help that her birthday was that week too... Now, we near my third Mother's Day without her and I still miss her terribly...
Thanks for your words of tribute.

A very heartfelt piece and fine tribute to your mother who I am sure fought valiantly. Keep the flame in your heart always lit in tribute as she has passed the torch to you....

Be always safe,
Karen
