Ronald Franchuk

In loving memory of Ronald Franchuk who passed away one year ago April 21

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be.

He closed his arms around you and whispered, “come to me”.

In tears we saw you sinking and watched you fade away.

Our hearts were almost broken, you fought many years to stay.

So keep your arms around him Lord,

And give him special care.

Make up for all he suffered and all that seemed unfair.

We sit and think of him together or alone, for memory is the only friend that grief can call it's own.
