"Happy were the years we spent

Lonely . are our hearts today.
For the one we loved so dearly,
Has rorever passed away.
No one knows how much we miss
you,
No one knows the bitter pain
We have suffered since we lost you,
Life has never been the same.
In our hearts your memory lingers,
Sweetly, tender, fond and true,
There is not a day, dear father,
That we do not think of you."

Your sorrowing children and
grandchildren.
