To Our Nephew Eddie
We will truly miss your smiling face. You will always be in our hearts. You were differe~t and we loved you for that. You never
asked for anything but gave willingly. You always had a smile
and a kiss for us. A memory of you as a little boy stealing tomatoes from our sa/ads brings laughter to our hearts. We thank God every
day for loaning you to us for a little while. :Sleep on nephew, get
your rest, we love you but God loves you best. Love Always,
Aunts Dotty and Cissy
Acknowledgement
Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair, Perhaps you sent a funeral spray, if so we saw it there. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words, as any friend could say, Perhaps you were not there at all, just thought of us that day.
Whatever you did to console our hearts, We thank you so much whatever the part.
