Thank you for the memories, Mother.
As the time has come to part.
We shall remember them always
And cherish them
in our heart.
The gentle hands folded in rest,
A voice we loved is still.
A place is vacant in our lives
Which never can be filled.
How much we all did love you
With your gentle loving ways,
Never complaining,
always cheerful
Even in your failing days.
You have touched the lives of many
In the sharing of your love.
Now, God has touched your life and beckoned
To your Heavenly home above.Rev. Norman NOBLE conducted the
service held at Wilson-Watson funeral home in Mount Ayr at 2 p.m. Monday, July 20. Music was by organist Mike GREEN and vocalist Mrs.
