This prayer is in memory of our mother:
Dear Lord, You gave me an angel from heaven who tended to me every day. She saw me through my trials and errors, watched and prayed as I went on my way. My angel protected me always, and vigilant ever was she. While fasting and praying for others, and faithfully calling on thee, my angel from Heaven did love me. I was blessed from that day I was born for that angel was my precious mother, and now, her departure I mourn. So please, Father, give her that mansion, she talked about time after time. Let her sing in your heavenly choir, among angel’s voices sublime. Please bless her and keep her forever in Heaven, away from all pain, and help me to be much more like her, so I can be with her again. Amen
