[fathers (grayer I never can forget the day I heard my Mother kindly say You 're leaving now my tender care; Remember, Child your Mother 's prayer. I never can forget the voice That always made my heart rejoice, Tho ' I have wandered God knows where, Still I remember Mother 's prayer. Tho' years have gone, I can'tforget Those words of love I hear them yet, I see her by the old arm chair, My Mother dear, in humble prayer. I never can forget the hour Ifelt the Savior 's cleansing power; My sin and guilt He canceled there, Twas there He answered Mother 's prayer. When e 'er I think ofher so dear, 1feel her angel spirit near; A voice comes floating on the air, Reminding me ofMother 's prayer.

Love Always, Barbara, Lois, Janice and Leon ~~ y^dcnowfecfgement ~~ Perhaps you sent a lovely card, or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floral piece, 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 today. Whatever you did to console our hearts, we thank you so much, whatever the part. ~ The Family ~ 3fc9(e)|e)ic3|e$jfe3feHC9i'9ie Services Entrusted To WILLIAMS FUNERAL HOME, INC.

Our Tiearts 3peak We knew your time was running out; We turned around for a quick moment And you were gone. We never got a chance to say good-bye, But the Lord was calling your name On the other side. You were tired, you tried to stay, But we know you had to go away. We're going to miss you But there is no more pain. We love you so much, Words cannot explain. God saw a broken flower That had been through the storm. He picked it for Himself. His love is marvelous and profound. One day we'll meet you, For we rest-a-sured, That you are in His presence. So it's all right now we'll see you one day on that other side. Love You, Shirley And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be anymore pain: For the former things have passed away. And He that sat upon the throne said behold I make all things new and He said unto me write for these words are true and faithful.
