A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we-loved is stilled, A place is vacant in our hearts-
Which never can be filled. And after a lonely heartache
And many a silent tear, But always a beautiful memory -
Of one we loved so dear.

TWENTY-THIRD PSALM
The Lord is my shepherd; I shaltnot want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters;
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name,s
sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow ofdeath, I will fear no evil: for
thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
~
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence ofmine enemies: thou anointest my
head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shallfollow me all the days ofmy life: and I will dwell in
the house of the LORD for ever ... AMEN

ACKNOWLEDGMENT Perhaps you sang a lovely song
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. The Family
