Dear Mom ?

We can?t give you flowers or a fancy card.

We can?t shower you with gifts or worldly pleasures.

We can?t call you and sing ?Happy Birthday? over the phone.

We can, however, send you our affection, our love, and our heart-felt yearnings that only a mother and children can share on their birthdays.??

So, Happy Birthday Mom!? We will forever love, miss you and hold you dear within our hearts!?

Your loving children ?

Sophia, Bill, Jack, Willard, BJ & Wendell
