Your gentle guidance has immeasurably influenced all that I have done, all that I do, and all that I will ever do.
Your sweet spirit is indelibly imprinted on all that I have been, all that I am, and all that I ever will be. Thus, you are a part of all that I accomplish and all that I become.
And so it is that when I help my neighbor, your helping hand is there also.
When I ease the pain of a friend, he owes a debt to you.
When I show a child a better way, either by word or by example, You are the teacher once removed.
Because everything I do reflects values learned from you, any wrong that I right, any heart I may brighten, any gift I share, or burden I may lighten, is in its own small way a tribute to you.
Because you raised me, and more importunely you gave me lessons in how to live. You are the wellspring from which flows all good I may achieve in my time on this earth.
For all that you are and all that I am, thank you, Mother.
I will never stop missing you.

I can only hope that my children will feel that way about me when I am gone. Your mom must have been a very special lady.
That touched my heart.What beautiful things to say about your Mother. Great tribute.
Perfect words from a son for a mother to know.
