In Our Hearts:

We thought of you with love today

But this is nothing new

We think of you in silence

We often speak your name

But now all we have are memories

And pictures in a frame

Your memory is our keepsake

Which we will never part

God has you now in his keeping

We have you in our hearts

You are not forgotten Dear sister

Nor will you ever be

For as long as life and memories last

We will remember thee
