Michelina Pinto Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 7, 2014.

I would rather have a little rose
From the garden of a friend,
Than have the choicest flowers
When my stay on earth shall end.

I would rather have the kindest words,
And a smile that I can see,
Than flattery when my heart is still
And this life ceased to be.

I would rather have a loving smile
From the friends I know are true,
Than tears shed round my casket
When I bid the world adieu.

You are in our Heavenly Fathers warm embrace now.
No words can express how I feel right now, but I feel comfort in knowing I did the best I could for you and your needs were my priority. For this I am grateful for the gift you left me to make it happen. No one can take that away from me.
I love you Mom.
