who passed away on March 1, 2009 Gone are the days we used to share, But in our hearts, you are always there. The gates of memory will never close, We miss you more than anyone knows. With tender love and deep regrets, We who loved you will never forget. Memories always, Daughters Edie, Ruby, Alice, Nancy and Florence
who passed away on February 26, 2011 Dad, it’s hard to believe a year has passed But God wanted you in His heavenly cast. I miss you so much, my heart still aches, But home is where you went, make no mistake. I remember the twinkle in your eye When we would share a special moment, Just you and I. I loved being your partner in any sport, Because a lot of people would want to abort. You always barbecued the best steaks, That’s a record no one else could break. Being little or big, you always held my hand, Which filled my life with so much grand. I loved being your one and only daughter, You wouldn’t believe how much you taught her. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers, Until we meet again, I will always care. Your daughter, Shauna Klein
In loving memory of
Dale Wayne Trach His Journey’s Just Begun Don’t think of him as gone away – His journey’s just begun, Life holds so many facets – This earth is only one. Just think of him as resting From the sorrows and the tears In a place of warmth and comfort Where there are no days and years. Think how he must be wishing That we could know today How nothing but our sadness Can really pass away. And think of him as living In the hearts of those he touched … For nothing loved is ever lost – And he was loved so much. Always in our hearts, Veronica and family
Honour your departed friend or relative …with a memorial gift that will do good in their name forever.
