Richard "Pete" McClaine

In loving memory of our beloved husband, father and grandpa, Richard "Pete" McClaine who passed away one year ago today.

You bade no one a last farewell,

Nor ever said "Goodbye"

You were gone before we knew it

And only God knows why.

A million times we cried,

If love alone could save you,

You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly,

In death we love you still,

In our hearts you hold a place

No one can ever fill.

It broke our hearts to lose you,

But you didn't go alone,

For part of us went with you,

The day God took you home.
