In loving memory of our beloved husband, father and granddad, Howard Keith Christie, August 1, 2007.

Three years ago today you left us, we'd see you never more.

We love you so much, our hearts are crushed and sore.

We thought of you with love today, but that was nothing new.

We thought about you yesterday and days before that too.

We think of you in silence, we often speak your name.

Now all we have is memories, and pictures in a frame.

Your memory is a keepsake, with which we'll never part.

God has you in His keeping: we have you in our hearts.

We visit your resting-place often, and tend with loving care.

Only God knows our heartache, when we turn and leave you there.
