We lost a mother with a heart of gold,
How much we miss her can never be told,
She shared our troubles and helped us along,
If we follow her footsteps we will never go wrong.
We miss you from your fireside chair,
Your loving smile and gentle air,
Your vacant place no one can fill,
We miss you mother and always will.
She was a mother so very rare,
Content in her home and always there,
On earth she toiled, in Heaven she rests,
God bless you mother you were one of the best.
Each time we look at your picture,
You seem to smile and say,
Don’t be sad but courage take,
And love each other for my sake.

Margaret’s anniversary Mass will be celebrated on Sunday 11th January at 10am in St Mary’s Church Drumagarner, Kilrea.

Loved and remembered always by your family Marie, Martin, Paul, Declan, Angela, Sharon, Malachy, Barry and the entire family circle.

Right now, I’m in a different place
And though we seem far apart
I’m closer than l ever was…
I’m there inside your heart
I’m with you when you greet each day
And when the sun shines bright
I’m there to share the sunsets, too…
I’m with you every night
I’m with you when the times are good,
To share a laugh or two,
And if a tear should start to fall…
I’ll still be there for you.
And when the day arrives
That we no longer are apart
I’ll smile and hold you close to me…
Forever in my heart.

In Heaven you rest, no worry, no pain.
God bless you until we meet again.

Loved and remembered always by all her family and close friends.
