In everlasting memory of our most beloved MARK GIALANZÈ on the 16th anniversary of his meeting with the Risen Lord. Time cannot steal the treasures that we carry in our hearts; Nor ever dim the shining thoughts, our cherished past imparts; For the memories of the ones we love, still cast a gentle glow; To grace our days and light our paths, wherever we may go; Your life, well lived, is a precious gift, of care and strength and grace; From you who has made our world a brighter, better place; Brimming over with memories, though bittersweet with smiles and tears; Our love’s a lasting legacy, that endures throughout the years. Remembered and cherished today and always with unending love by Roberta, Isaac, Timothy, Maria, Erika, relatives and friends. A Mass in his memory will be said today at 5.15pm at the church of the Immaculate Conception of Our Lady, St Julians.
