In loving memory of our beloved father, grandfather and great grandfather Willard J. (Pete) Fennell who passed away 47 years ago, October 2, 1965.

He bade no one a last farewell

He said goodbye to none,

The heavenly gates had opened

A lovely voice said, “Come”

And with farewell unspoken

He gently entered home.

Our dear one sleeps in silence

We’d not disturb his rest;

Sad and lonely are the hearts

Of those who loved him best.

Just when your life was brightest,

Just when your years were best,

You were called from this world of sorrow

To home of eternal rest.
