Canora Courier, April 02, 2008 Page 16 – In memory of:

HOLOBOFF: In loving memory of Lena Holoboff. who passed away March 29, 2002.

If you are ever going to love me,

Love me now while I can know;

The sweet and tender feelings,

Which from true affection flow.

Love me now

While I am living,

Do not wait until I'm gone

And then have it chiselled in marble,

Sweet words on ice-cold stone.

If you have tender thoughts of me,

Please tell me now,

If you wait until I am sleeping,

Never to awaken,

There will be death between us,

And I won't hear you then.

So, if you love me, even a little bit

Let me know it while I am living

So I can treasure it.

-Sadly missed by son, Wayne (Bobbie); son, Chris (Teresa); grandsons, Colin and Curtis; her family and many friends.

Canora Courier, April 02, 2008 Page 16 – In memory of:

KERELCHUK, Helen: Died March, 1955.

It is 53 years since you were called away,

How well do we remember the day;

With steady hands you worked so hard,

In your garden and in your farmyard.

But your health got weak,

And we watched you fail.

So God wrapped His

hands around you,

And whispered "Come with Me",

And you'll have a new life to unveil.

You are always in our thoughts,

Each and every passing day;

Although your not here,

You are always cherished in our thoughts and you're not far away.

Your memory is our keepsake,

With which we'll never part.

-Love, cherished and missed by daughter, Mary Gawryliuk and family.
