A Poem for Leslee

Precious Gift
©  Sherri Lawrence

When times seem too hard to bear & I l feel like giving up
I vision your beautiful face, the twinkle of your eyes and things of such
The bond we created from my womb to the day you were born
Is a mother and daughter bind that can never be torn
With the strength and guidance of God and the blessings he pours down from above
I want to be the best mom I can be to you and embrace you with all my love
You are as precious as a flower and as gorgeous as a rose
You have been specially made to the very tip of your nose
You are as sweet as honey; such an innocent young child
You are brighter than any star in the sky every time you smile
I want you to be proud of who you are and strive to be the best
Put forth your efforts to achieve your goals and let God do the rest
I will always be your mother first, but I'm also your friend
Your are the most precious gift, that I've ever been given

With All My Love,  Mom



1957-2008  she was always my angel  and now she belongs to God.

Oh my God...Marty...I'm so sorry I didn't read this sooner. I'm in shock...how did this happen so fast? I thought she had more time...
Marty, I will always have a special place in my heart for you and Leslee...I'm sorry, I can't seem to wrap my head around all of this and the words just aren't coming to me the way they should.
I can't believe Leslee is gone. I just can't.
I love you Marty and pray that God gives you strength and surrounds you with your loved ones during what I can only imagine, is the most difficult of times.
I am broken about this....there are no words.
Love Becky xx

I really do not know what to say -- except I pray that God gives you strength and eases the pain you must be going through.

I have been trying to log on everyday to check the status.  I am heartbroken without even really knowing the two of you.  I just relate so well with your relationship with one another.

Dearest Marty,

I am shocked to read this news so soon.  You have been a great mother and warrior, fighting every step of the way, always by Leslee's side.  Now she is watching over you and will always be by your side.  Thank you for being you, you have been a great help and support to me as well.
I am so so sorry for your loss and my thoughts are with you and the whole family.
Love and big hug
