In Memoriam
ABELA. In loving memory of our dearest mother SARAH on the second anniversary of her passing away to eternal life.
They say there is a reason
They say that time will heal
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel.

So there won’t be any doubt
You’re so wonderful to think of
But so hard to be without.
