The family would like to thank Alines special friend, Edna Sandrock and sister-in-law, Faye Olesczuk and also Dr. Odeh and the staff at Genoa Retirement Village. She never failed to do her best, Her heart was true and tender; She toiled hard for those she loved, And left them to remember. A loving mother, kind and true, Her equals on this earth are few: A happy life, a peaceful end, She died as she lived, everybodys friend. If we had this world to give, We would give it and more; To see our darling Mother, Come smiling through the door. Those who have a mother, Should tend her with care; For you never know her value Till you see her vacant chair.
