"If roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me, place them in my mother'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 a while. Because remembering her is easy. I do it every day but there's an ache within my heart that will never go away." We love you and we will miss you always, Mom. We would like to thank the staff at Avalon Health (South), Tucson Community Hospice and Home Instead Senior Care.
