Dorothy Irene Burton

We will all remember you

Our thoughts will always be forever

We will never forget all the joy brought into our lives

Or the laughter you brought each of us.

Reminiscence of the happiness you gave us every season

And the sorrow that united us firmly.

You instilled joy, hope, strength, and love of family.

Guided us in bad times and in good,

Led us unto the just path and were never led astray.

You gifted us with life,

The seasons became our playground, you our teacher

Our hearts will feel hollow,

We will all remember you, your love of life,

You will never escape our memories.

But should we become lost

When life becomes full of hardships

We have only you to think of

And we will find our way again.
