BROWN - Happy 50th
Anniversary Honey.
You were my life, my best
friend
You made my day a pleasure
from beginning to end.
As days became years you
were there by my side,
When you smiled at me, it was
the best.
You were the sun in the morn-
ing and the moon at night,
Your every thought I think and
all I feel.
You’re all my universe, all that
was real
You were the best husband,
father, Granddad, Great-
Granddad.
My darling, I will always love
you forever.
Your Vonny always. (46*)

106 In Memoriam
CAREY - Jean - A very special
friend and 2nd Mother.
November 13, 2001.
In a quiet country graveyard
Where the gentle breezes blow
Lies one we love so dearly
And lost one year ago.
There will always be a
heartache
And many silent tears
And lots of precious memories
Of the days when you were
here.
We will always hold you deep
within our hearts
And there you will remain
To walk with us throughout
our lives
Until we meet again.
We Love You forever. Sally,
Jo-Anne, Don, Michael,
Gregory and Nicole. (46x)
KING - In loving memory of
our dear wife, mother, grand-
mother and great-grandmother,
Isabelle King, who passed
away November 17, 2001.
It was your time and you had
to go.
Can it really be a year ago?
In our minds your face is clear.
Your voice we sometimes
think we hear.
We miss our talks and things
we’d do.
Your laugh, your wit, your
point of view.
We miss your spunk, your
style, your touch.
We miss the “you and me”
times so much.
Now a few keepsakes and a
photo or two
Are all we have to remember
you.
But memories, “Mother”, will
always be
What keep you near and dear
to us.
And if we could have one wish
come true
It would be a few more
moments with you.
Our last chat over a cup of tea
Would become our fondest
memory.
Lovingly remembered and
sadly missed by husband
Russell; children Wayne and
Wendy King, Ken and Ruth
Ann Eagleson, Eugene and
Michele King; grandchildren
and great-grandchildren. (46*)
