Thank you Lola

Thank you Lola for being there,
From the time my brother and I was an infant,
With such small and tiny hands.
You taught us to love all of God’s children,
By showing a kind, supportive, and caring hand.
Thank you Lola
for teaching us about God,
and his kind, spirited ways.
That is why we chose to obey HIM though our actions,
Each and every day.
Thank you Lola
For my dad,
You taught him to be a kind and caring
Family man,
That his wife and kids can depend on
To lend a loving hand.
Thank you Lola,
For everything you did to help us be all that we can be,
Now it is our turn to help you enter God’s loving arms,
So you finally can be free.
