One thousand times we've missed you
One thousand times we've cried
If love alone could have saved you
You never would have died.
A golden heart stopped beating
Two smiling eyes at rest
God breaks our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.

Donna, Wayne and family, I am very sad to read that you have lost your Mom and Granny. My thoughts are with you all. My memories of my childhood at your house on Hespeler are happy ones. Especially eating the best frozen butter tarts in the basement when your Mom wasn't looking. Hugs to you all. Love Susan - Posted by: Susan Parr (Life long friend) on: May 29, 2021
