In Loving Memory
We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
Ands days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak you name.
All we have are memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory's our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
We have you in our hearts.
