CARD OF THANKS

Perhaps you sent a lovely
card, or sat quietly in a
chair.
Perhaps you sent a funeral
spray, if so we saw it there.
Perhaps you spoke the
kindest words, as any
friend could say.
Perhaps you were not there
at all, just thought of us
that day.
Whatever you did to con-
sole our hearts,
we thank you so much,
whatever the part.

A special thank you to Dr. William Baumann and the Fairfield Clinic staff; to Pastor Todd Follette and the Fairfield Friends Church and Women's Group; to the many people involved with the Cancer Loan Closet; the Hospice Program of Jefferson County and Nancy Engwall of the I Can Cope Program. To all friends, relatives, neighbors and co-workers a special thank you.

By the family of Joanne Marie King.
