The following poem was written about Katherine by Jeanette Hill.

To Katherine:



I don’t understand

How you could leave us so fast

You were here but a moment

And then the moment passed

You impacted so many

In your short time on this earth

You taught me to love more

And cherish what each person is worth

I am eternally grateful

That I got to know you

And spend time with you here

Though those moments were few

I don’t understand it

Can’t make sense of it all

I wish you could come back

That I could make the time stall

But you are in Heaven

Jesus is holding you now

And so Katherine I promise

Yes, this I will vow:

To live life to it’s fullest

Find joy in each day

Laugh more and love more

And help others on their way

To cherish my children

And be a better friend

To give thanks to God

When each day comes to an end

I’ll think of you often

With those wings you have earned

And thank you with all of my heart

For the lessons I have learned.



Ask My Mom How She is

My Mom, she tells a lot of lies
she never did before.
From now until she dies,
she'll tell a whole lot more.
Ask my Mom how she is
and because she can't explain,
She will tell a little lie
because she can't describe the pain.
Ask my Mom how is she,
She'll say "I'm alright."
If that's the truth, then tell me,
why does she cry each night?
Ask my Mom how is she,
she seems to cope so well.
She didn't have a choice you see
nor the strength to yell.
Ask my Mom how she is,
"I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping."
For Gods sake Mom, just tell the truth
just say your heart is broken.
She'll love me all her life,
I loved her all of mine.
But if you ask her how is she
she'll lie and say she's fine.
I am here in Heaven.
I cannot hug from here.
If she lies to you don't listen,
Hug her and hold her near.
On the day we meet again,
we'll smile and I'll be bold.
I'll say, "You're lucky to get in here, Mom
with all the lies you told!"

Today is my little angel's birthday. Kat would have been 12 today. I still remember her last birthday but can't believe it has been 10 years. I still miss her more than words can describe.

Our family is still blessed. We have one another, our parents, our brothers and sisters and our friends. This will keep us until we are all re-united in Heaven one day.

Love,

Diana
