The family would like to thank his nurse Ann and the staff at the Palliative Care Unit for their care, support, and compassion. The most sacred spot on earth to us Is where our loved ones lie As we wander to your graveside we stand and wonder why You suffered much in silence and your spirit did not bend You faced your pain with courage to the very end You fought so hard to stay with us But your fighting was in vain God took you to his living home And freed you from all pain Our family chain is broken And nothing seems the same No verse, no flowers, no words can say How much we miss you in every way Deep in our hearts the memory is kept Of one we loved and will never forget God calls us one by one Our family chain will link again - We love you Dad CROPO FUNERAL CHAPEL 204-586-8044
