IN MEMORIAM

In memory of our father, Ernest Baxter,

February 21, 2015.

Lonely is our home without you,

Life to us is not the same;

All the world would be like Heaven,

If we could have you back again.

A light from our household is gone,

A voice we loved is still,

A place is vacant in our home,

That never can be filled.

The happy hours we once enjoyed,

How sweet their memory still,

But death has left a vacant chair,

This world can never fill.

How dearly we loved you,

And prayed you might live,

But JESUS just beckoned,

And we had to give.

GOD gave us strength to bear it,

And courage to fight the blow,

What it has meant to lose you,

GOD alone will ever know.

Deb, Cindy and Jay
