In loving memory of our dear father, grandfather, Eugene (Chiney) Jack who left us 48 years ago, February 15, 1965.

Little did we know that morning

The sorrow the day would bring.

The lost was great, the shock severe

To part with one, we loved so dear.

We could not say our last farewell or even say good-bye

For you were gone before we knew and only God knows why.

Time may hide the sadness

A smile may hide the tears

But memories of you are there

Despite the passing years.
