Since You Went First
S ince you went first and I remain To walk the road alone,
I 'll live in memories garden, M axie With happy days we've known.
We've known so much happ iness, We've had our cup of j oy.
And memory is one gift of God, That death cannot destroy.
Since you went first and I remain One thing I'll have to do,
Walk slowly down the path of death, Some day, some night, I will follow you.
I want to know each step you take, That I may walk the same.
For so1ne day down the lonely road, You'll hear me call your name!
Submitted by Your loving husband,
John L. White

A Faded Flower
Another flower has faded, But it will bloom again,
Over there in heaven, Where joy shall never end. There are loved ones that will be waiting, Relatives and also friends, But best of all there will be Jesus, Standing at the door to let her in. This flower that has faded, And is free from the cares of life, Will blossom and bloom again, For Jesus Christ will give her life, The life that she has with Jesus, Will be sweeter than it has ever been. For this flower is now faded, Will never, never fade again.
We love you Marna, Bryan, Carol and Bryan, II
