Precious Photo Memories '- jsV ^ '^i Precious Photo Memories The Dash I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of his friend He referred to the dates on this tombstone from the beginning ... to the end. He noted that first came the date of his birth and spoke the following dates with tears, but he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years. For the dash represents all the time that they spent alive on earth and now only those who loved them know what that little line is worth. For it matters not, how much we own; the cars ... the houses ... the cash. What matters is how we live and love and how we spend our dash. God didnt promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. by Linda Ellis My Three Sons Cry for me, shed some tears Remember all those wonderful years. Stand up for me and pray for me that I will always be with you. Because I loved you. When it rains, its the tears I shedded through the years. When the wind blows its me touching your face. When the sun comes up its me saying, Get up it is a new day! When the moon shines bright at night its me smiling saying, It will be all right. When day comes to an end it is God saying, Rest, pray, tomorrow is another day. Love, Mama ^Sjctue^J^(Meahjeh& Dea. Carnell Killcreek Bro. Craig Williams Bro. Gary Holland Bro. Stacey Blake Bro.
