WEMIGWANS --In loving memory of Grandma Josephine Wemigwans who passed away march 1, 2003.
God saw you suffering on this very day,
So He put His arms around you and whispered, "Come with me."
With tearful eyes we watched you fade away
Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay.
A loving heart stopped beating.
Hard working hands put to rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
Sadly missed, lovingly remembered,
Shelley, Brianna, & Boys

WEMIGWANS --In loving memory of our dear grandmother, Josephine, who left us three years ago on March 1, 2002.
Not a day goes by that we do not think of you.
Sharing happy stories, smiling, and laughing
Every day there are small things that remind us of you
We miss you more each day,
Somehow, life does not seem the same,
Since you have gone away.
Our hearts still ache with sadness,
Our eyes shed many a tear;
God only knows we miss you,
As this ends another year.
All our love, Shelley, Gus, Jordan, Eric, Collin and Brianna.

Michael a loving husband, father, grandfather and now our guardian angel. In the fifty eight years you spent on this earth you touched many lives and brought us laughter and love.

Forever in our hearts.

WHITE--In memory of my husband, Lloyd, who passed away September 2, 2001.
I often lay awake at night
when the world is fast asleep
and take a walk down memory lane
with tears upon my cheeks.
Remembering you is easy
I do it everyday.
But missing you is a heartache
That never goes away.
--Lovingly remembered, Helen

WHITE --In loving memory of Lloyd, who passed away September 2, 2001.
God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So he closed his arms around you
and whispered "Come to me"
And when we saw you sleeping
So peaceful and free from pain.
We could not wish you back
To suffer that again.
--Loving remembered by wife Helen and family.

Where gentle breezes blow.

WHITE, Lois--In memory of a dear friend Lois White who passed away May 6, 2003.
We do not forget nor do we intend
We think of you often and will `til the end.
Only God knows why our hearts still ache with sadness.
And silent tears will flow and we miss you Lois and love you so.
Miss Me & Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no lights in a gloom filled room.
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little bit not too long. And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the friendship that we once shared,
Miss me but let me go.
For this is journey we all must take
And each must go alone.
It is all a part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.
Miss me but let me go
Sadly missed and always loved by your friends Carole and Neil.

WHITE --In memory of a dear friend, Lois White, who passed away May 8, 2003.
Although her laugh is gone forever
Her hand I cannot touch
I have so many memories
Of the one we shared so much
. Our hearts still ache with sadness
And silent tears will flow
For the wonderful friendship we shared
And the times we spent together.
Lord put your arms around her
And give her a great big hug
Tell her how much we miss her
And give her all our love.
--Lovingly remembered by Neil and Carole.

WHITE--In loving memory of Morland White, January 7, 2002, beloved dad of Brenda Maurice.
My life goes on without you
But nothing is the same,
I have to hide my heartaches
When someone speaks your name.
Sad is my heart that loves you
Silent the tears that fall,
Living my heart without you
Is the hardest part of all.
You did so many things for me
Your heart was kind and true,
And when I needed someone
I could always count on you.
The special years will not return
When we were all together,
But with the love within my heart
You will walk with me forever.
Dad, take good care of your grandson.
Your daughter Brenda Maurice.
