Poem: In Loving Memory Of You
                       Son
Memories of a darling Son 
      Fill each single day,
And though the heartache lessens
       It never goes Away.

        You had every virtue 
Of a fine & loving Son, 
You filled the days with sunshine
        With laughter & with fun. 

We couldn't have Imagined
        The lost that Lay in store,
 But to have you was a blessing 
         That will last forever more.
