106 In Memoriam
MORLEY - In loving memo-
ry of a special Mom and
grandmother, Florence, who
passed away January 3, 1994.
A dear mother who was so
rare,
In times of need she was
always there,
There was always a smile
and a tender touch,
Asking for little but giving so
much,
She shared our hopes, joys
and sorrows,
And taught us to look to
tomorrow,
She was loving and caring
and had a heart of pure gold,
What wonderful memories
we treasure and hold,
Her life was unselfish for
others she did live,
Not for what she received but
for what she could give,
To us she was so special,
What more is there to say,
Except to wish with all our
hearts,
That she was here today.
Lovingly remembered -
Brian, Elaine, Michael &
Marc (1*)
WALLACE - In loving mem-
ory of Bill who passed away
December 31, 2003.
No length of time, no lapse
of years,
Can dim our dear one's past,
For loving thoughts still hold
him dear,
And will while memory lasts.
Lovingly remembered by Jim
& Arlene, Ann & Rob,
Wendy & Wayne, Peggy &
Ron, nieces, nephews and
families. (1*)
