Verna Joyce Doucette
November 23,1922- March 6, 2015
Her smiling way and pleasant face
Are a pleasure to recall,
She had a kindly word for each
And she died beloved by all.
Some day we hope to meet her
Some day we know not when,
To clasp her hand in the better land
Never to part again.
Forever loved & always missed,
Cale & Marian
