A loving thought, a silent tear, A constant wish that you were here. Loved and remembered always. Jenn, Julianne, Rachelle, Josh and Cian Mom and Ralph, Karen and Dennis and family, Todd and Joan and family.
Nine years have passed since that sad day, When one we loved was called away, God took him home – it was His will, Within our hearts Mark liveth still. Sadly missed but never forgotten. Mom (Irene), Ken & Marisa Christine & Ron
Should you go first and I remain To walk the road alone, I’ll live in memory’s garden, dear, With happy days we’ve known. In Spring I’ll wait for roses red, When fades the lilac blue. In early Fall, when brown leaves call I’ll catch a glimpse of you. Should you go first and I remain, One thing I’d have you do: Walk slowly down that long, long path, For soon I’ll follow you. I’ll want to know each step you take That I may walk the same, For someday down that long, long road You’ll hear me call your name. Always in our hearts. Norma, Bradley, Cheryl, Michael & Families & Friends
