Loving Thoughts and Wishes
Memories reflect the joy Of special times we've known Of happiness that through the years Has deepened and has grown.
When thoughts go back across the years, And now and then they do, It seems as if each memory Is special because of you.
Because of your unselfish ways, Your kindness and good cheer,
Your memories will ring Within our hearts each and every year.
We know you wanted to say Goodbye to all,
But softly and gently Our Heavenly Father called.
We love you and will miss you.
Ora B., Plato, Stu, and Chaurice
