The voice is mute, and stilled the heart That loved us well and true; Ah, bitter was the trial, to part From one so good as you. You are not forgotten, loved one, Nor will you ever be; So long as life and mem'ry last We will remember thee. We miss you now; our hearts are sore; As time goes by, we miss you more- Your loving smile, your gentle face . . . No one can fill your vacant place. A Memorial Service will be held in his honor on Saturday, October 10, 2015 at 11:00AM at the Horan & McConaty Family Chapel, 9998 Grant Street, Thornton, Colorado. A continued time of fellowship and refreshments will be held immediately following the memorial service at the Horan & McConaty Family Chapel.
