BEACH, Harry
BEACH - In loving memory of my husband, Harry G., who passed away Dec. 19, 1996.
Alone, but never quite alone, I face your empty chair,
And sometimes in my lonely hours, I imagine you're still there.
It's lonely here without you, Harry, I miss you more each day,
As life is not the same for me Since you were called away.
It's sad to live my life alone, From the day I had to start,
For when God came and took your hand, My whole world fell apart.
When days are dark, and nights are long, And I feel there is no hope,
I think of you, and things you've said, And I find a way to cope.
The special years cannot return, When we were here together,
But with the love that's in my heart, You'll be with me forever.
Forever loved and sadly missed by wife Leona.

POIRIER, RACHAL
POIRIER, RACHAL - December 19, 1992
You were the wind beneath our wings, And brought such joy to our lives,
You'll be forever in our hearts and souls. Miss you and love you always, your family

ANDERSON, Alice
ANDERSON - In loving memory of wife, mother, grandmother and Great-grandmother, Alice, who passed away suddenly on December 20, 1995
The month of December comes with deep regret,
It brings back memories we will never forget,
No farewells were spoken, No time to say good-bye,
You were gone before we knew it, And only God knows why.
It broke our hearts to loose you, But you did not go alone,
Part of us went with you, The day God called you Home.
Always remembered and sadly missed, by husband Frank and Family
