At the library HANCOCK, Beverly Ann November 10th, 1935 - October 3rd, 2002 The years pass by, yet it feels like yesterday when we last saw you. Sometimes, it's as if you're still here with us, sitting at the table read- ing your books, or cooking up one of your famous holiday feasts. When we need you the most, that's when we miss you the most, which feels like all the time. But, you taught us to be strong, mom, and we will be strong, by cherish- ing our memories of you, hearing your laughter wherever we are, and through all the love that you gave us in life.

MARSHALL, Gordon - In loving memory of a loving Husband, Dad and Grandpa who passed away October 6th, 2006. We thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new, We thought about you yesterday and days before that too. We think of you in silence, we often speak your name, All we have are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake with which we'll never part, God has you in His keeping, we have you in our hearts. Lovingly remembered by, Joyce, Vicki (Paul), Diane (Kevin), Sandra (Keith) and Grandchildren IN MEMORIAM ACTON
