A loving nature kind & true, is the way we'll always remember you. Time is not measured by the years that you live, But by the deeds that you do & the joy that you give. Love is a smile, a tear & a touch. Love says little, but means so much. Love is forever & we give it to you, From the Family who thought the world of you.
