As I celebrate my birthday
these words to you I give.
Without your love and caring,
I wouldn't want to live.

When I said my last goodbye
to my husband, pal and friend,
I felt that I could not go on
and I wanted life to end.

But you showed me so much caring.
Truer friends there could not be.
You'll forever be my " Angel "
and your friend I'll always be.
