For the last few years, Kenneth Montgomery Keillor has been the primary caregiver for his most beloved and beautiful mom as she suffered through dementia and manifold physical disabilities. Ken's mom had faith in Jesus Christ as her Savior and she went to Heaven on August 22, 2010. Below is a song he composed in loving memory of his mom.

 Mom - Florence Marion Tungehaug

I want to thank you Jesus for saving my mom
Now she's up in heaven where she belongs
She's happy and she's smiling, walking those streets of gold
She's young and she's beautiful and will never grow old
She's laughing and she's lovely in the presence of the Lord
She's safe and she's free, forevermore

Where do I start to tell you about her
Poetess and princess and philosopher
Generous and gentle and compassionate
The sweetest person that I ever met
Talented and creative beyond compare
Not to mention seamstress and chef extraordinaire
Whenever you needed her, she was there
And you always knew that she cared

Her name was Florence, and a flower she was
Just like an angel from above
And if you hear me honey, I love you forever
And soon we'll be together again
