Barbara Sender Memoriam

In memoriam

Barbara Willsie Sender

August 14, 1929 - March 25, 2009

To Mom...

Today is your birthday,

87 years young.

Your children remember

Your sweet smile, your raspy voice, your funny naivet .

The years added softness to your

character.

As physical pain became

a daily burden,

you never complained,

you just kept smiling.

You left us in March of 2009.

We smile with each thought of you,

Though it is a bittersweet memory,

with just a tinge of sadness

at the edges.

But like you, we smile through.

We love you, we miss you more

than words can express.

You are in our hearts forever.

Happy Birthday, Mom.

Bob, Joan, Jeff, Jeanne, Don

There are so many times I just wanted to pick up the phone for a little advice, or drop by to watch bull riding with you. You went through much pain and misery, but in the end, you overcame all that.

I love and miss you mom :(
