In loving memory of Metro, beloved husband, father, grandfather and great-
grandfather, who passed away September 3, 2006. They
say time heals everything, But we know it isn't so; Because
it hurts as much today, As it did one year ago. -Forever loved and deeply missed by wife Nellie, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. |
