MEMORY 
A friend to man has fallen In our heart and lives he'lllive on ; 
The deeds, the smiles, the joys-Help many a "battle" to be won. 
A friend of man has fallen His memory will live with us still; 
To the many that knew and loved him There is a void which none can fill. 
May we who knew and loved him Keep .before us his greatest desire; 
"Always seek to lift and aid others And meet him in Heaven on high."
