Kind deeds he’d always show;
His smile revealed the caring of
The dad I didn’t know.
His death came unexpectedly
The day his heart let go;
We children all felt

A dear lady in the church I serve shared with me a poem she cut out of a magazine over 60 years ago. It has the spirit of what Dr. Graham’s mother felt about being a mother:
A Mother’s Prayer
Sing me no eulogy of praise,

The winds of love upon my face began to blow.
I opened my eyes and began to glare,
At what it was that caused the current of air.
Many thoughts flooded my wee little mind,
As I rose from the bed desperate to find,
Whatever this was that made me
