The Broken Chain We little knew that day, God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, In death, we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone. For part of us went with you, The day God called you home. You left us beautiful memories, Your love is still our guide. And although we cannot see you, You are always at our side.
~ Acknowledgements ~
There is no joy on earth so precious to us than having wonderfully warm and caring friends like you. We gratefully acknowledge the acts of love shown to us during our time of bereavement. We ask that you keep us in your prayers as we transition through this difficult time. ~The Family
Our family chain is broken, And nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again.

My Dad
My father is a man like no other. He gave me life, nurtured me, taught me, dressed me, fought for me, held me, shouted at me, kissed me, but most importantly loved me unconditionally. There are not enough words I can say to describe just how important my father was to me, and what a powerful influence he continues to be...
I Love You Dad

herished Memories
We Had A Wonderful Grandfather We had a wonderful grandfather, One who never really grew old; His smile was made of sunshine, And his heart was solid gold; His eyes were as bright as shining stars, And in his cheeks fair roses you see. We had a wonderful grandfather, And that’s the way it will always be. But take heed, because He’s still keeping an eye on all of us, So let’s make sure He will like what he sees.
I Love You Granddad
