If friends so desire, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society Manitoba Division, 193 Sherbrook St., Winnipeg, MB, R3C 2B7. God saw you getting tired When a cure was not to be He closed His arms around you And whispered "Come to Me". In tears we saw you sinking We watched you fade away Our hearts were almost broken You fought so hard to stay. What you suffered you told so few You didnt deserve what you went through Tired and weary, you made no fuss But tried so hard to stay with us. So when we saw you sleeping So peaceful, free from pain We could not wish you back To suffer that again. Morris Funeral Home Phone 746-2451 Toll Free 1-800-746-2451
