Life is like a journey Taken on a train With a pair of travellers at each window pane I may sit beside you all the journey through Or I may sit elsewhere never knowing you But if fate should move me to sit by your side Lets be pleasant travellers Life is so short a ride. We love you mum. Neil Bardal Inc. 949-2200
