2nd Anniversary

It has been two long years since you left, and the rolling stream of life rolls on.

But you remain alive and fondly remembered by your dear wife, children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, friends and relatives in our hearts and memories.

Recalling the love, the voice and the smile of the ones who once sat here, though we have learnt to live without you each day.

We continually thank God for the time spent together and for the grace to bear the distance that now separates us.

Yes, you are gone but never forgotten, always remembered, “always in our hearts”

The unveiling of the cross will be this Saturday 8th July 2017.
