NORMAN, William
NORMAN - In loving memory of a wonderful husband and father, William Norman, who passed away February 6, 1996.
God saw you getting tired
When a cure was not to be,
So He put His arms around you,
And Whispered "Come with Me."
You did not deserve what you went through,
And so He gave you rest,
God's garden must be beautiful,
For He only takes the best.
Sadly missed and loved by wife, Christine and children.
