We little knew that morning, God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to loose you, you did not go alone; for part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us with beautiful memories, you love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again. - A uthor Unknown
The Family would like to thank everyone for all acts of kindness shown to -them during the passing of their loved
one. May God bless each of you. "In God We Trust".
