In Loving Memory

The B roken C hain
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone,
For part o f us went with you. the day G od called you home.
You left us peaceful m em ories, your love is still our guide.
And though we cannot see you. you are alw ays at our side.
O ur family chain is broken, and nothing seem s the same.
But as God calls us one by one. the chain will link again.
We miss you, even though we know you are still with us in spirit, it’s been a very long year.
