ALLAN EDWARD OBIREK April 3, 1931 - November 6, 2006 Allan, if I wrote a million verses, it would not be a start, To tell the world about you, and what is in my heart. If someone were to ask me what a perfect day would be, I would wish for a day that I could be with you. If someone were to ask me what would make a perfect life, I'd lovingly say, I had it when you my brother were in my life. Without you, I know that life will never be the same No matter how much I try to move on with my life I am never complete. Your loss is a heartache that never goes away. You have blessed my life in so many ways that only a brother and sister share. Forgive my tears but I never believe life could be so hard to bare. Losing you and Mom and Dad were the hardest heartaches I will ever know. What can you say about a brother and parents who gave their life to you Who never failed you and who were devoted to you in their love? When you all left this earth, you took the very essence off me And I await your loving arms when we will all meet again. With profound love and devotion, Aileen. Love with a love beyond all feeling, Missed with a grief beyond all tears. I am so proud that I am your sister. DEAR UNKIE One year ago you left us, you did not go alone, Where part of us went with you the day God called you home. You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Forever loved and remembered Ashley and Arnie.
