You Can Only Have One Mother You can only have one mother - patient, kind and true. No other friend in all the world will be the same to you. When other friends forsake you, to mother you'll return, for all her loving kindness. She asks for nothing in return. As we look upon her picture, sweet memories we recall of a face so full of sunshine, and a smile for one and all. Sweet Jesus, take this message to our dear mother up above. Tell her how much we miss her and give her all our love. Shirley, Robert Jr., Venus, Samuel, Kathy, and Tyrone Acknowledgements The family wishes to express their sincere gratitude to all those who have supported us with cards, calls, texts, and prayers during this time of bereavement. May God bless you and His love be yours to share.
