You Will Be Missed

Though you have gone from our sight,
Your memory will forever shine bright.
Your gentle heart, your loving ways,
Will live within us all our days.

You touched our lives in special ways,
And left behind a love that stays.
Though tears may fall and hearts may ache,
The memories of you we'll never forsake.

Your smile, your laughter, your loving embrace,
Are treasured memories no time can erase.
You may have journeyed to a peaceful place,
But you will forever hold a special space.

Rest peacefully, dear Ramona,
Your work on earth is finally done.
Though we must say goodbye today,
Your love will never fade away.

You will be missed more than words can say,
And remembered with love each and every day.
