In loving memory
Richard M. Reed
October 9, 1933-January 4, 2004

Not how did he die, but how did he live?
Not what did he gain, but what did he give?
These are the units to measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.
Not, what was his church, nor what was his creed?
But had he befriended those really in need?
Was he ever ready, with word of good cheer,
To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?
Not what did the sketch in the newspaper say,
But how many were sorry when he passed away?

It’s been eight years, but we still miss you and think of you everyday.
Love, your family

Memories remind us that we have loved and been loved,
That our lives were touched by someone special!
We lost you 15 years ago, we LOVE and MISS you so much!

Love always,
Your children, grandchildren, entire family and friends!

In Loving Memory of our dear Mother and Grandmother, Blanche Naffziger, who passed away January 7, 1999, thirteen years ago.
Loving you is easy, I do it every day,
Missing you is a heartache that never goes away.
I sit and wonder why the Lord chose to call you away.
I think He saw you needed rest.
He only takes the best.

Sadly missed by children and grandchildren

When God walked through the Garden of Life, on December 21st and 22nd 2010, He saw two mature beautiful flowers. God had been nurturing these flowers since they were buds, in 1918 and 1919. God knew they had weathered many storms and had grown toward the sunlight of His love. God called to them, “Delores and Vernon, I want you to be a part of My heavenly kingdom, where joy and beauty can never fade.” Each one answered, “Yes, Lord, take me.”

In loving memory of my wonderful Papa Smurf, whom I lost 6 years ago, December 18, 2005. Time may continue on without him, but the love and the memories stay with me always.
I miss and love you so much, Dad.
Your daughter, Robin

January 15, 1943 – December 14, 2003

The moment that you died,
My heart split in two;
The one side filled with memories,
the other died with you.
I often lie awake at night,
when the world is fast asleep;
I take a walk down memory lane,
with tears upon my cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
I do it every day,
But missing you is a heartache,
that never goes away.
I hold you tight within my heart,
and there you will remain;
Life has gone on without you,
but it will never be the same.

I love and miss you everyday Mom,
Your daughter Tammy

Ralph C. Elder, Sr. July 12, 1945 – December 6, 2010 Through our tears and fears We remember the past years The one we love Now safe up above Our thoughts engraved forever Some we strive to endeavor A father, husband, and son Eternally a special someone Now lost in thought and prayer Know how much we care We love you, The Elder Family

November 15, 1979 to November 26, 2006

At first your death hurt, but over the 5 years I started to flirt, flirt with the idea that today may not be the worst, as I move on with my life, your death no longer feels like a knife, now I go from feeling like this month is crappy, to just being happy you were even here, you may not have been the best of brothers, but I wouldn’t ask for another, I still wish you were here, so I hold you near and dear, with everything that has happened in the last 5 years, my life is finally clear, so as I sit here today, I say, thank you, my life has only gotten better!! I miss you less, David, with everyday that goes by, but I will never forget about you, I know that is what you would want!

Love,
Christine, Jessie,
Shawn, April, LeLand,
Mom, Dad and Tim

There are lots of husbands in the world
But now and then you see
One who kind of sets the style
Of what husbands ought to be

One whose special qualities
Make him stand out in the crowd
And whose kindness to his family
Makes them awfully pleased and proud

And Honey, I feel happier
Than I ever hoped to be
Cause the nicest man in all the world
Is the one who married me!

Love your wife, Sharon

Sad are the hearts that loved you,
silent the tears that fall.
Living our lives without you,
is the hardest part of all.
You did so many things for us,
your heart was kind and true.
And when we needed someone
we could always count on you.
The happy years will not return,
when we were all together, but
with the love within our hearts
you’ll walk with us forever.
So, if we could have a lifetime wish
a dream that would come true,
we’d pray to God with all our hearts
for yesterday with you.
A thousand words can’t bring you back,
we know because we’ve tried,
and neither will a million tears,
we know because we’ve cried.
You left behind our broken hearts
and happy memories too.
We treasure all these memories,
but wish we still had you.

With love from your family,
Sharon, Debbie, Dutch, Mike, Amanda
Monica, Gregory, Heather, Christopher, Joshua, Jordan
Nathaniel, Zachary, Mackenzie and Adilyn-Grace

We are gonna love you forever and ever…. AMEN.

September 10, 1957 – November 15, 2009

Corine, “You are the apple of God’s eye”
May the road rise to meet you,
may the wind be always at your back,
may the sun shine warm on your face,
the rain fall softly on your fields;
and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.
