A wonderful mother, woman, and aid,

One who was better, God never made.

A wonderful worker, loyal and true,

One in a million, that, mother, was you.

Just in your judgment, always right,

Honest and liberal, ever upright;

Loved by your friends and all you knew;

A wonderful mother, that, mother, was you.
