April 16, 1936 – November 18, 2010

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.
