COOKSON, Glenn Patrick
COOKSON - In loving memory of my son, Glenn Patrick, who was killed in a tragic car accident February 6, 1998.
Our lives go on without you,
But nothing is the same;
We have to hide our heartaches,
When someone speaks your name.
Sad is the heart that love you,
Sad is the tears that fall;
Living our lives without you is the hardest part of all.
Sadly missed, forever loved, Mom and sister Debbie.
