In Memoriam Bradley Mother Anna R Remembrance
In loving remembrance of my dear mother Anna R on Mother's Day. Sad and sudden was the call of one so dearly loved by all. A bitter grief and shock. We often sit and think of you and speak of how you died. To think you could not say goodbye before you closed your eyes. For all of us you did your best. Oh God grant you eternal rest. Her daughter Pauline, Son-in-law and grandchildren.
