GOGOL:  In loving memory of Olga Gogol, Sept. 16, 1917 – Aug. 8, 2000.

God came and took you and broke my heart,

Leaving me sad and lonely,

Heartaches and tears still flow.

What it meant to lose you,

No one will ever know;

Part of me went with you,

I am waiting for the day to meet you, honey.

-Love, husband Ludwig.

PASLOSKI:  In loving memory of our son Barry, who passed away on Aug. 19, 1988.

He is gone but not forgotten,

And as dawns another year;

In our lonely hours of thinking,

Thoughts of him are always near.

Days of sadness will come over us,

Many think the wound has healed;

But they little know the sorrow,

That lies in the heart concealed.

-Sadly missed and loving remembered, parents Leonard, Vivian, sisters, brothers.

A mothers’ memory is more than gold,

And a mother’s worth can never be told;

A loving mother good and kind,

A beautiful memory left behind.

We miss you, Mom.

-Love, Florence (Allen), Greg, Julie (Ryan) and Brent.
