258 In Memoriam
PARSONS - In loving memory of our dear
brother Mike Parsons. October 7, 2007.
Gone is the face we loved so dear,
Silent is the voice we loved to hear;
Too far away for sight or speech,
But not too far for thought to reach.
Sweet to remember him who once was here,
And who, though absent, is just as dear.
We'll miss you always, Love you forever.
Love Pete, Terri and the Dobson family.
(40*)
In Memoriam
PARSONS - In loving memory of my husband
and best friend Mike Parsons who passed away
Thanksgiving Weekend 1 year ago October 7,
2007.
A million times I've needed you,
A million times I've cried,
I have lost my soul's companion,
A life linked with my own.
For what it meant to lose you Mike,
No one will ever know.
I remember the day I met you,
That look I'll never forget!
I'm thankful every single day,
The time I had with you.
For you were meant for me,
And I was meant for you.
Your love, your laugh, your caring ways,
Will stay with me always everyday.
Love Lynne. (40*)
FAHNER - In loving memory of John (Toby)
Fanner, loved husband, father and grandfather
who left us so suddenly September 29, 2007.
It's been a long, hard year without you, John,
I miss you so much, but still life goes on.
You left before I could say goodbye,
This I'll never understand why.
I miss your smile, your teasing way,
I miss you more, each passing day.
I thought of you today, but that's nothing new,
I thought of you yesterday and the days before
that too.
Your memory is a keepsake, of which I'll never
part.
God has you with him, but I have you in my
heart.
Tears still fall; your absence causes such pain,
But deep in my heart I know, we'll be together
again.
Memories and pictures will last forever,
The ties that bind us, no one can sever.
I loved you then, and will to the end,
Until we meet again, all my love I send.
Your loving wife, Linda and our families. (40*)
MCVEENEY - In loving memory of our dear
son Martin, who passed away September 29,
1995.
There's a special corner in our hearts,
We keep it just for you,
As long as life and memories last,
We'll always think of you.
Lovingly remembered and always missed, Mom
and Dad, Brothers and Sisters. (40*)
