A Personal Message to Your Loved One

Gone are the days we used to share, but in our hearts you’re always there (57)
Gone is the face we loved so dear, silent the voice we loved to hear (53)
Her life a beautiful memory, her absence a silent grief (45)
To live in the hearts of those we love is not to die (40)
Not lost to memory, not lost to love (28)
Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day (45)
Dearly loved, sadly missed (22)
Gone but not forgotten (19)
A bitter grief, a shock severe, to part with one we loved so dear. Our loss is great we’ll not complain but hope in heaven to meet again (105)
Those cheerful smiles, that heart of gold. The dearest voice the work could hold, a beautiful soul in a garden of rest; it’s true what they say: God chooses the best (126)
My heart aches with sadness, tears they often flow. What it meant to lose you, no-one will ever know. Ever faithful, kind and true. Selfishness you never knew. Whatever else I fail to do, I shall always love and remember you. (176)
