DRYNAN, Shirley (Munro)

In loving memory of a dear Mom and Nanny, who passed away on September 21, 1993.

It hardly seems possible,

Although it is true,

One year has passed, Mom,

Since we last saw you.

Our hearts still ache,

Deep down inside

And we have to wonder,

Will this pain ever subside?

You suffered with courage,

You never complained.

We thought you'd get better,

But all was in vain.

Today is especially remembered and quietly kept,

No words are needed,

We will never forget.

Deep in our hearts

You will always stay,

Loved and remembered every day.

Life Is Not Forever ... Our Love Is

Deb, Doug, Sean and Erin.
