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.

I've never corresponded with you personally, but have followed a lot of your posts regarding Leslee.  I just wanted to say that I am so very sorry that all of you had to go through this.  You were blessed to have a wonderful daughter like her, and she was equally blessed to have a mother like you.  May God hold you in his arms and comfort you at this difficult time.  ~ Lori

Words cannot express the feelings that I have, for such support that you all give to my family.  Right now I have a big hole in my heart.  I will copy this out and show to the family.  Leslee was a gift to us, and you all know the saying,  "that gifts keep giving" I will keep drawing on her strength for a while till I can finally let her go.  I wish that all of you could have met her personally, then you would know, what has been lost from this world.

Marty,

Please accept my deepest sympathies for you and your family.  I am angry this disease had the chance to take another one...but at the same time, we are all so blessed for knowing Leslee through you.  Please know we are holding you close to our hearts as you go through this.  What an angel she is, indeed.

Love,
Gail

Dear Marty,
I am so sad today..My heart breaks for you and your family.
love  butterflytc

God saw you were getting tired
A cure was not meant to be,
So he put his arms around you
And whisperd come with me.

With broken hearts we loved you
As we heard you had passed away,
Allthough we love you deeply
We could not make you stay.

Your golden heart stopped beating
And your caring soul was put to rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.
