HAYES, Patricia:
In loving memory of a cherished Mum, Grandma and Great-Grandma
Time slips by and life goes on, but from our hearts you're never gone...
We think about you always,
We talk about you too,
We have so many memories,
But we wish we still had you.
Forever in our hearts
Roena and Donald.
HAYES, Patricia:
In loving memory of a cherished wife taken very suddenly 6 years ago today -
There is always a face before me,
A voice I would love to hear.
A smile I will always remember
of a wife, I loved so dear.
Deep in my heart lies a picture,
more precious than silver or gold.
It's a picture of my wife,
whose memory will never grow old.
Sadly missed
Lovingly remembered
Eric.
