BURNS, John R.
BURNS - In loving memory of a wonderful husband, father and grandfather, John R., who passed away June 9, 1998.
We think of you in silence, We often speak your name,
We have such precious memories, And your picture in a frame.
Our hearts still ache with sadness, Our silent tears still flow,
For what it meant to lose you, No one will ever know.
Your resting place we visit, And flowers we place with care,
But no one knows the heartache, As we turn and leave you there.
Sadly missed and always remembered, Mildred; Bob and Cecile; Donna and Randy; Cook and Roy, Chris and Ed, and families.
DAUPHINEE, Carolyn Dianne
DAUPHINEE - In loving memory of our darling daughter and sister, Carolyn Dianne, taken suddenly June 9, 1962.
We seldom ask for miracles, But today just one would do,
To see our door open wide, And you come walking through.
The gates of memory, Will never close,
We miss her more, Than anyone knows.
Lovingly remembered always, Mom and Dad, sisters, brother and families.
MORASH, Susan Jean
MORASH, Susan Jean - June 14, 1961 to June 3, 1996.

So you can hear that we miss you, love you always, and wish that you were here.
Always remembered and loved by Mom, Dad, Tara and the rest of your family.
