Loving and kind in all your ways Upright and just to the end of your days. Sincere and honest in heart and mind What a beautiful memory you left behind. You tried so hard to stay with us Your fight was all in vain, God took you home to be with him He freed you from all pain. To your resting place we visit And place your flowers with care, But no one knows the heartache When we walk away and leave you there. If teardrops could build a stairway And memories a lane, We would walk all the way to heaven And bring you home again. —Sadly missed and always re- membered with love by Bill, Shirley, Doug, Ila Rae, Pauline, Mary Lou, Ronnie, sons-in-law, daughters-in- law, grandchildren and great-grand- children.
