"There Comes A Time"
There comes a time for all of us when we must say goodbye, But faith and hope and love and trust, Can never, never die. Although the curtain falls, at last, Is that a cause to grieve?
The futures fairer than ihe past if only we believe And trust in Gods eternal c..re - So when the Master calls
Lets say that lit-- is still more fair Although tJu3 curtain falls.
The family wishes to express iheir deepest gratitude and ap preciation to all, whom in any way, showed an expression of sympathy, love, care or concern during this time of our be reavement.
