Remembering Mom and Dad
Rose and Jim Adams
May 28, 1902 - April 16, 1974 ..... July 11, 1901 - April 16,
1978
This sixteenth day of April is
like a warm summer's day.
Not long ago was frigid cold;
spring thoughts seemed far away.
This date, so long ago,
took my parents one by one;
And never again did I believe
this day would bring the sun.
My angel Mom is singing -
I hear her sweet and clear;
And Dad is making flowers grow
in the garden he held dear.
Memories of them will never fade
and together they must be
Angels in heaven's garden -
watching over me.
