In Memoriam BURNS In loving memory of Joe Burns July 15th. Five years have come and gone, But the memories linger on. Never more than a thought away, Quietly remembered day after day. Gone but not forgotten. Evangeline, Claudette and Jeannette. 46-28x1cc MCGRATH In loving memory of a dear and special Mother and Grandmother, Ruth who was called home 6 years ago, July 14, 2000. There's a gift in life you can not buy, That is very rare and true. It's the gift of a wonderful Mother, Like the one we had in you. To us you were very special, What more is there to say, Except to wish with all our hearts, That you were here today. We will always remember the way you looked, And the way you spoke and smiled, Tho little things you said and did, Are with us all the while. You were always watching our for us, Anxious if we were late, It made the long way home seem a lot more safe, Knowing you were waiting there. We often sit and reminisce, And have a laugh or two, Fondly telling stories, Of the things you used to do. Your memory is our keepsake, With which we'll never part, God has you in his keeping, We'll always have you in our hearts. If our love could have saved you, You would not have died. If tears could bring you back, You would be here by our side, But looking back with tenderness, Along the path we trod. We treasure the time we had with you, And leave the rest to God. Lovingly remembered and sadly missed by your children, Barbara, Cheryl, Sandy and Paul, Donna and Neil, Ken and Waneeta and your grandchildren Mike, Nick, Tommy and Timmy. 46- 28-1 46.
