who passed away 12 years ago, October 27, 1999

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 special years will not
Return when we were all together,
But with the love within our hearts
You will be with us forever.

Loved and sadly missed by your family

March 13, 1956 – July 30, 2005

Time heals the pain that was given to us the day you left this earth, but the memories we made with you will be strong in our hearts forever.
We love and miss you very much.

Love,
Jess, Grandpa and family
