~~MY MEMORY GARDEN~~
In Loving Memory of Our Loved Ones who have gone Home to Eternal Rest~~ In Loving Memory of My Precious MotherDorothy L. HordDecember 5th, 1913 - March 29th, 1984If Roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me, Place them in my Mother's arms and tell her they're from me. Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, I do it everyday, but there's an ache within my heart that will never go away. And when I do, Your smile moves through my mind. Eager, bright and kind, In Memories so warm and clear, And how I wish that you were here. Let me give it to you in a very special way. It may be hard to get through today, But always for you, I will pray. Let us share this day with everybody we love, In remembrance of her up above. Let this day not come to an end, For she was very Special to us and more then a Friend. Let's not forget her when we pray, For everything she did was for us in her own special way. In Memory of My Precious Mother and His Grandmother, by My Son, Michael Paul Owen while he was living in Brasil. In Loving Memory of My Father-in-lawZell E. OwenAugust 26, 1916 - November 25th, 1997but he had more riches then the richest man in the World. Wealth to show, he did not have, but he had a heart of Gold. I guess about all I can say is... Thank-you for being you... For all the things you’ve done to make life better for others... For all the ways you’ve shown how much you cared... For all the times you were there to offer your help... For all the days you spent working to take good care of your Family. You brightened the lives of many with your gentle caring way... And now we mourn our loss today... Our World will now be darker And our hearts are filled with pain But there’s one more star in Heaven To help illuminate God’s Domain. God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be. So He put His arm around you, and whispered, “Come with Me.” A precious heart stopped beating, hard working hands took rest, God broke our hearts to show us He only takes the Best. Thank-you for being such a very Special “Dad” and accepting me as your “Daughter” Thank-you for enriching my Life and being there for all of us when we needed you. God Truly Blessed your Life... May He continue to watch over and Bless each one of us. Your Loving Daughter-in-law, Carolyn In Loving Memory of My NephewMonte J ThomasJuly 4th, 1956 - June 29th, 1973He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou annointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord Forever. Amen. In Loving Memory of My Beloved HusbandKenneth R. OwenMay 11th, 1943 - June 22nd, 2001Don't grieve for Me, for I'm free, I'm following the path that God laid for Me, I took His hand when I heard Him call, I turned away and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play, Task left undone must stay that way, I found that peace at the end of the day. If parting has left a void, Then fill it with A remembered joy, A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah yes, these things, I too shall miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a Loved One's touch. Perhaps My time seemed all too brief, Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with Me, God wanted Me now, He has set Me free. A day does not go by of which I think of you or of a fond Memory we shared together... Missed so very much by Your Loving Family. |
