“Mother,” Friend, May 1972, inside back cover

Mother

And blessed is my mother,

For she is a mother in Israel

And shall be a partaker with my father

In all his patriarchal blessings.

Blessed is my mother,

For her soul is ever filled with benevolence.

She shall yet be comforted in the midst of her house;

She shall have eternal life.

Prophet Joseph Smith
