(49*) PFAFF - In loving memory of my husband Art, who passed away one year ago December 6,2007. I little knew that morning, That God would call you home, In life I loved you dearly, In death I do the same. You did not go alone, For part of me went with you, The day God called you home. Always in my heart, love Verna. (49*) WELLS/LANE - Nelson (Punch) Wells - November 16, 1993, Donna Lane (Wells) - December 4, 2007 We never thought of losing you, And maybe that was wrong, You always seemed a part of us, That would go on and on. That is why our grieving has no end, However hard we try, Our love for you was far too deep, To ever say good-bye. Always loved and sadly missed, Tiny Wells and family. (49*) GENTTNER - In loving memory of a special mom, grandma and great -grandma Florence Genttner. She left us two years ago December 7, 2006. It s so strange that those we need, And those we love the best, Are just the ones God called away, And took them home to rest. But every time I think of you mom, I seem to hear God say, Have faith and trust my promise, You 11 meet again someday. No matter how my life may change, Or whatever I may do, I will never forget those precious times, The ones I spent with you. Always missed and never forgotten by your daughter Shirley, grandchildren George, Valerie and Sandi and your great- grandchildren Stephanie, Jared, Noah & Jordan (49*) 259 Cards of Thanks LAWRENCE - We would like to thank our family and friends for making our 50th wedding anniversary a great celebration.
