In memory of
A. HARVEY BAKER September 23, 1922 - July 21, 2005 In loving memory of my husband Harvey who passed away after a short illness. Life is sad without you, I miss you more each day, Still searching for a reason why you were taken away. As time goes on without you, the days turn into years, They hold a million memories and a thousand silent tears. This month comes with deep regret, It brings back a day I will never forget. Harvey, beside your grave I often stand, And try so hard to understand. The tears in my eyes I wipe away, But the ache in my heart is there to stay. Life goes on, I know it's true, But it's not the same since I lost you. When I'm sad and lonely and your death seems so unfair I can hear you whisper, Touch your heart, you'll find me there . So dear God, please take a message to Harvey who is up above, Tell him how much I miss him and give him all my love. You are sadly missed and lovingly remembered, with love your wife Phyllis.
