In loving memory of our husband, father and grandfather, Carl F. Marcellus.

We thought of you with love today,

But this is nothing new,

We thought of you yesterday and the days before that too.

We think of you in silence and often speak your name.

All we have now are our memories and your picture in a frame.

It broke out hearts to lose you,

But you didn't go alone.

A part of us went with you

The day God took you home.
