MCKENZIE-In loving memory of my husband, Allen McKenzie, who passed away February 24, 2007.
Gone yet not forgotten,
Although we are apart,
Your spirit lives within me,
Forever in my heart.
If tears could build a stairway
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to Heaven
And bring you home again.
Forever loving you. I miss you. Roberta.

MCKENZIE--In loving memory of a dear husband, Allen McKenzie, June 1943 - February 2007.
We little knew that morning, that God
Was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
You did not go alone;
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories,
Your love is still our guide;
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same;
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
Forever missed and dearly loved, Roberta.

MCKENZIE--In loving memory of Grampa Bert McKenzie of Tehkummah who passed away on April 9, 2008.
It's been one year, dear grampa,
Since you had to go away,
I've missed you oh so many times,
Wanting to pick up the phone and say,
"How are things dear grampa?
What's new with you today?
I plan to come and visit you
Once the ferry's under way."
Now spring is near, dear grampa,
I think of you with love,
A whole year's gone by since you departed,
Rest in peace in Heaven above.
Love always, Connie Mayer and family.

I miss you a lot
This house is so empty
Without you Dear
You were with me all the time
I miss those drives we would take
I look at pictures of you
I miss you dear.

You'll never know
How much we miss you dear,
You were the love of our life
I miss those nice drives we would have

Hoping to see you out there.
We love you dear.

MCKENZIE, Zaida-March 31st, 1975. In loving memory of a dear mother.
My lips cannot tell how I miss her;
My heart cannot tell what to say
God alone knows how I miss her
In a home that is lonesome today.
