A sweet poem from Larry to Mavis
Im Only a Whisper Away
Im only a whisper away
Come dry your tears, and smile again, love
Remember the good times weve known.
Cherish the joy we discovered.
Love that was planted and grown
Your road may seem lonely ahead.
And distant horizons look grey.
You wont be walking alone dear.
Im only a whisper away.Visitation Thu, Feb 28, 2019 at 6:00 pm - 8:00 pmVernal Memorial Park
