There is so much I want to say about how much you meant to me br Role model, friend, teacher, the best gardener you ever did see br Images of the world perfectly captured by your water colour brush br Birds in the garden well fed at the table, my favourite the song thrush br Under your guidance we all knew nothing could go wrong br The happy times we spent with you will be with us our whole lives long br Eight grandchildren loved taking donkey rides upon your back br br Three children all looked to you and mum for the love that we will never lack br Over the years, you were always there for us and still are in many ways br br Memories of you will never fade, you are with us in spirit for the rest of our days br Your garden will grow, the veg will taste great and tiny shoots explode into flower br br Diligently teaching us your green fingered ways, you have given us the power br Above all you have proved life was there to be lived, go and get it and be the best br Don’t look back now, keep moving on until you reach the place of final rest.
