May the winds of love blow softly, and whisper so you will hear that we will always love and miss you. Lord, find the softest pillow to lay her head upon. Place a kiss upon her cheek and tell her who it's from. There is a flower that grows between us. It is called a forget-me-not.
Forever loved and missed by sons, daughters, and grandchildren.

NEWMAN
NEWMAN - In loving memory of William O. Newman, our husband, father and grandfather, who passed away on March 22, 1997.
We lost you two years ago today, Only God knows how much we miss you;
You will always be in our hearts, We were sorry to see you depart.
God took you Home, it was His will, To heal and love you in His garden of rest.
We lay flowers on your resting place with care, But our hearts ache;
When we go and have to leave you there.
Our lives go on without you, Sometimes we still shed tears,
But often we look back, And treasure the memories,
We have of you.
Forever loved and sadly missed.
Rita and family
