John Ralph Burkett Jr.
IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our beloved brother and uncle John Ralph Burkett Jr. who passed away 10 years ago today.

In a little country cemetery,

Just a few short miles away,

We laid a precious loved one

Our dear brother and uncle who passed away.

And if all the world were ours to give,

We would give it all and more,

To see his face we loved so dear,

Come smiling through our door.

Some think we are not lonely,

When at times they see us smile,

Little do they know the heartaches

That we suffer all the while.

They say time heals all sorrow,

And helps one to forget,

But time so far has only proven

How much we miss him yet.

Until we meet again...

With Love,

Wade, Sherri,

Valerie and Jonathan
