SSG FRANK GASPER Tribute

Mother:

You are the greatest gift of my life...

I don't recall the first time you held me or when I first heard your voice.

But from the first moment you held me in your arms, you made the most selfless choice...

you chose to change your busy life so that my life could begin.

You were my Shelter from the rain; on you, I could depend.

You held my hand when I was afraid and helped me to mend my first broken heart.

you bandaged my wounds, wiped my tears, and kept me from falling apart.

You've loved me without question,no matter what I did.

you shaped me into a confident adult from such an awkard kid.

Even though you're not always right beside me,

Your love is matched by no other.

And I thank God each day for his greatest gift.

Making you my mother.
