Tribute poem to my father's late mother.
Grandma Went Home On Mother’s Day
By Rev. Robert A. Crutchfield

She was the mother of a son and a daughter.
She was the loving grandmother to five.
She was a great-grandmother, and a great-great grandmother too.
Grandma went home on Mother’s Day

She never thought of herself as an artist.
Yet her family was her greatest masterpiece.
She loved each of them totally, and completely.
Grandma went home on Mother’s Day.

She left us with a great example.
She taught us what devotion to family means.
She taught us that God, and family come first.
Grandma went home on Mother’s Day.

She filled our lives with happy memories.
The best parts of her became parts of us.
Much of what made her grandma, will be with us always.
Grandma went home on Mother’s Day.

Mother’s day came, and Grandma left.
She went home to be with the Lord she loved.
To Heaven, to prepare our best family reunion ever.
Grandma went home on Mother’s Day.
