WHALEN, Doris
WHALEN - In loving memory of Doris Whalen, who passed away 10 years ago today, on December 27, 1989.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
(Author unknown)
Now together with son, Tony, in heaven. Forever remembered and sadly missed by husband, Jack and daughters, Jackie and husband, Richard Tardiff; Betty and husband, Ralph Judge, and families.

BEACH - In loving memory of a special Father and Papa, Harry G., who left us suddenly December 19, 1996.
Have you ever had a heartache or felt the awful pain?
Have you ever shed the bitter tears that drop like falling rain?
If you have never had that feeling, we pray you never do,
For when you lose your father, you lose a part of you.
So Dear God, take a message to our Dad in heaven above,
Tell him how much we miss him,
And give him all our love.
Forever loved and sadly missed, daughter, Shirley; son-in-law, Hoss; granddaughters, Patricia and Cassie.
