In Memoriam
KENNEDY, Louise Haana (née Togo).
Passed away May 10, 2017.
To Our Mum…
No one knows how much we miss you,
No one knows the bitter pain we have suffered since we lost you,
Life has never been the same. In our hearts your memory lingers,
Sweetly tender, fond and true. There is not a day, dear mother,
That we do not think of you.
Love always – Dad, Jays, Paul, Janine, Justin and Damian.
KENNEDY, Louise Haana.
‘Who slipped away’
10 May 2017
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be,
So he put His arms around you and whispered,”come to me”.
With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away,
And although we love you dearly, we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
Our Nanny, we cannot begin to describe how much we miss you. We love you forever, beautiful lady. Forever treasured by all your Mokopuna
