One or the other must leave, One or the other must stay. One or the other must grieve, That is forever the way. That is the vow that is sworn, Faithful til death do us part. Braving that what has to be borne, Hiding the ache in the heart. One, how so ever adored, First must be summoned away. That is the will of the Lord One or the other must stay. Graham's Funeral Service entrusted with arrangements. (204) 825-2848 www.wheatlnd.com
