In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

They say that only the good die young.........and in my experience, it is so true. But we take comfort in the fact that Bill has moved on to a place with no pain. Words cannot express the loss we feel, but we take comfort in the knowledge that he has been set free.



Ruth, what wonderful care you gave Bill. I know it wasn't easy, but with love and dedication you perservered. You are such a special person, and we love you!!

We have known Bill as a Brother-in-Law and friend for too short of time. His knowledge of many things was known to all. His love of his wife Ruth were a great inspiration to all who knew him and he will be missed. Our love and sympathy to Ruth and his family.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers.



Ruthie…you are the strongest person I know. Your dedication, unselfishness, caring, and loving attitude during Bill’s illness is immeasurable.



There is a special place in heaven for you …..Bill is out of his pain now and at peace.
