"mother dear"

i would call out

she was adopted

her mother hemorrhaged giving her life

March 1 1935

a birthday and a death day

no other siblings

her mother's sister

took her home
then

she became youngest of four

grew up in Salt Lake
met George
eloped to Evanston at 17
raised six children
Bountiful
and Farmington

just facts

 but, she was real
fun
warm
quick to fire up
loved to hose down a driveway
squeaky clean

mother dear
 tough
devoted
good

not so long gone
