Condolences
The family of Gwen Marie Johnson-Schoenfelder has received the following condolences.
I am so very saddened to hear about Gwen's passing. Sending my deepest condolences to Joe and Jason and their families.
Mother's love is never ending
With sadness, hurt there's always mending
Memories of the past remembered
A relationship always endeavored
Holidays with family near
Always there to lend an ear
Thanksgiving dinner and cherry pie
Accidents and boo-boos, it's OK to cry
Card games of war that lasted hours
The joy you shared from fresh-picked flowers
The letters we would write each other
My bad choices you kept from father
Puzzles that we'd piece together
When it got too cold or in wet weather
The tickles, giggles, and "got your nose"
The never-ending "love you more's"
Wonderful memories made together
In my heart and mind, they live forever.
A sons love lasts far longer
But Mother's love will always be stronger
Love you more Mom.
Your favoritest youngest son
Sending big hugs and lots of love to family and friends!!
Dawn, Brian, Alahn and Korah Ek
