My Precious "spiritual Mom" :)
This beautiful lady came into my life... she will never exit it!!! She is with our Lord dancing, singing, praising of all the beauty He created here-around her family and for her family and friends. I was maybe a small role in her life-but she is one lady who never acted like that. Even with Dementia she somehow NEVER forgot my name-and with the visits I made mind you -they were all as many as possible from out of state. That is a Christ-Like heart connection if you ask me. She knew some of my pain in life-and she wanted to be a mender... as she saw that was how I was for her. I always visited to bring upon happiness and excitement. And she always showed so much more. I am proud to call myself her daughter.... I can feel her smiling in my heart as I type this. He Celebration of life today was more than just a celebration... it brought up all years of amazing moments that many never knew about. From family, friends, neighbors, strangers... she never did one thing but make sure people knew about who brought her here to bring these four amazing kids to her life.... bring her to this world just to enjoy til she moved on to the REAL WORLD of God's Eternal. She made sure all heard about Jesus!!! AMEN!!
I always write poems in tough, blessed, amazing times... she was one of each.... I was blessed to meet so much of her family today... amazing gifts I can call each....
Thank you Libby for being an amazing friend--to bring me in to this moment that is so Godly and touching.
Here is the poem... Libby... I am not connected to all in your family... please forward this to Suzy and Bill!!! And whomever you think would enjoy to keep.....
With much love....
Poem for Miss Barbara T Baker ... my spiritual mother... same first name as my physical mom!! :)
Whose Love Continues So Deep....
I never thought I’d meet a friend
Whom I could call my “Mom”
A lady full of beautiful love
So ALIVE FOR ALL with no end
She was always full of Jesus
Always steadfast, very faithful
Precious Barbara is now dancing Above
With Christ who knitted her true soul!
Mom had THE one of a kind personality you see
Truly full of patience, truth, her love so Devine
Devine to our Creator Jesus who led her to love me!
I always loved it when she’d say to me “ you are mine!”
She has 4 very amazing creations, 3 I’m meeting this very day
Mom blessed me with her first-Libby as a friend I am so grateful for!
She had a lot of character, humor, love and true faith as a Mom I say
Our outings all together were a blast, faith filled laughter-wanting more!
I saw Barbara’s changes over the coarse of the years
Her faith grew so strong yet her body more delicate and weak
Even with the illness I had-while visiting her one time in tears
She knew how to set me straight with Christ- saying “continue to seek!”
We would take her to lunch and she’d ask little me to pray
Pray for her mood to be lifted from all anxiety and fear
That was the first time we met, knowing each other would never delay
Holding hands, closing eyes & praying to our Lord Jesus who is ever so dear!
Jesus so dear to bring her to this world and bless her with such gifts, not strife
She raised them well and brought them joy -as they do to me each day as well!
I was just so blessed to be a small part of her beautiful, intricate life
Whom I could call my “Mom”
A lady full of beautiful love
So ALIVE FOR ALL with no end
She was always full of Jesus
Always steadfast, very faithful

So Miss Barbara this is Hetty, I know you see me and can always hear
I miss you so much, that amazing bond we formed... But I know it never fades
You see me living near your sweet Libby now which put you at peace, no fear
I will keep her laughing as you did mom, knowing you’re less than a blink away

Earth was just a pit stop
A place to learn and have some fun
Up to Heaven is THE REAL THING
A place to learn and have some fun
Up to Heaven is THE REAL THING
Praising God and being thrilled goes on and on
So everyone pull up the shield of faith
Knowing you only win thru love
Miss Baker was that perfect shield
Which is why she is smiling from Above
I love you mom.... Miss Barbara
