The year before my Grandmother passed away she gave each of the girl grandchildren one of her aprons with this poem tucked in a pocket or pinned on. That was three years ago this August. I still cry everytime I read it. Cried again today, but thanks so much...I love the poem and love thinking of my Grandma.
Thanks so much for posting this. I have never read it before but it made memories of my late grandmother who died from cancer, and the memories just came rushing back to me. Thanks so much for the memories and the much needed tears
