In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to a charity of ones choice. A cluster of beautiful memories Sprayed with a million tears Wishing God had spared you But for a few more years Thanks for the years you gave us And for the happy times we shared We only pray that when you left us You knew how much we cared Our family chain is broken And nothing seems the same But as God calls us one by one Our chain will link again. LEATHERDALE GARDINER 1501 Waverley Street 949-4860
