AN ANGEUS KISS
We go through life so often,
not stopping to enjoy the day.
And we take each one for granted
as we travel on our way.
For in our pain and sorrow,
an Angel's Kiss will help us through,
This kiss is very private,
for it is meant for only you.
We never stop to measure,
anything we just might miss.
But if the wind should blow by softly,
we'll feel an Angel's Kiss.
A kiss that is sent from heaven,
a kiss from up above.
A kiss that is very special,
from someone that we love.
So when our hearts are heavy,
and filled with tears and pain,
And no one can console us,
remember once again...
About the ones we grieve for,
because we sadly miss.
And the gentle breeze we took for granted
was just an Angel's Kiss.
Sadly missed by her cousin
Lorraine Schnaser and friend

HEAVEN IS MY ItOME
Dear Lord, 1 love the world you've made,
its valleys, hills and streams.
l've spent much time with every one and
yet to me it seems
A million years just idly spent
enjoying gifts so fine
Would all tell me you bless me
with a love that is divine.
This world is all l've known, Lord,
and l've traveled far and wide.
I've seen the world close at hand
and on the other side.
And everywhere that 1 have gone
in atr, on sea or land.
'Twas plain to see that everything
is held within your hand.
But Lord, it seemed my life was short,
the years were all too few,
So many things were left undone
I wanted so to do.
I'd planned to visit family and friends
for many years,
but then so unexpectedly
it ended with our tears.
Now those who know all tell me
heaven doesn't count by years,
And knowing that has helped so much
to take away my fears.
Though being human seems
to make it difficult to see
You created us to live with you
for all etemity.
But now I've glimpsed the heavenly
realm,
its beauty, joy and peace,
And been assured the blessings flow
and they will never cease.
Dear Lord, forgive my discontent
that earthly years were few,
And fill my heart with gratitude
for nearer life with you.
And now; dem-IA3rd, remerdBeF :
all my family with love,
Assure them I am living still
and bless them from above.
Just tell them I am happy
and my spirit's free to roam
Throughout the whole wide world
because heaven is my home.
We love you and miss
you so deeply,

IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of Tom Wittnebel
who passed away Feb. 21, 1998.
You went ahead before us all
To a place we can't visit, write or call.
We miss you more than you can know
The pain in our hearts
It does still show.
We miss your laughter, your joy and love
We know you're watching us from up
above,
But as long as we keep you always in
our hearts,
Our ties to you lengthen but never part.
