Mothers Never Die
You have not lost your Mother,
Though you’ve said your last good-byes,
Though there are heartbreaks in the parting,
No one’s Mother really dies.
If you love to hear the old songs,
For the memories that they bring,
It’s because you had a Mother,
Who taught you how to sing.
If you stop to help a neighbour
Search your heart and you will find,
It’s because you had a Mother,
Who taught you to be kind.
If you go to church when weary
Seeking God to guide your way,
It’s because you had a Mother,
Who taught you how to pray.
No you never lose your Mother,
Though you’ve said your last goodbyes,
Through your thoughts
And deeds she’s living
No one’s Mother really dies.
We wish to extend our deepest sympathies to the children, family and friends of Pat McCormack. We remember her as a valued member of our Institute and we are very sorry to hear of her passing.
Lorraine (Doherty) Radke
I was saddened to hear of Pat’s passing. My deepest sympathies to all the family. As children, we played together. Later as mothers, we sat together at the ball diamond watching our kids play softball. She loved her family with all her heart. May your happy memories help you through this difficult time.
