Remembered by the congregation of Victoria Street United Church; and a Brownie leader to many young ladies. A million times we've needed you, A million times we've cried, If love could have saved you, You never would have died. Things we feel most deeply, Are the hardest things to say, Our dearest one, we loved you, In a very special way. If we could have one lifetime wish, One dream that could come true, • We'd pray to God with all our hearts, For yesterday and you. --17x •WUNNINK In loving memory of a dear Husband, Father, Opa and Grandfather, Jack Wunnink, who passed away nine years ago, April 24, 2000.
