REMEMBERING MUM....
(a personal tribute)

Mum's absence is
An endless chasm.
She was Life's greatest,
Most beautiful,
Most precious Gift to me
For which I am grateful
And for which, I feel blessed !
She brought meaning,
Restoration and purpose
Into my life.
Her quiet, gentle presence
Was my Comfort...
Her prayerfulness,
My Strength.
A Poem to her Maker -
.SHE WAS MY HOME
AND MY BEST FRIEND !

OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
