HIRAM WALTER (POP) JONES In loving memory of our husband and father. Remember Pop with a smile today, He was not one for tears. Reflect instead on memories Of all the happy years. Recall to mind the way he spoke And all the things he said. His strength, his stance, the way he walked Remember these instead. The good advice he'd give us His eyes that shone with laughter So much of him that never dies But lives on, ever after. He was a man of honesty Integrity and pride. Important, then, the way he lived Not the way he died. If a tear should fall today Perhaps it shall be shed For this first year without him here And the many that lie far ahead. Lovingly remembered by your wife Dorothy and children Ken, John, Ron, Dorothy, Jerry, Doug and Tim and their families.
