In Memoriam

BARBARO SANT – RACHEL.

Each time we look at your picture
You seem to smile and say
Don’t be sad, be strong
And love each other for my sake.
We cannot bring the old days back,
When we were all together,
But fond and loving thoughts of you,
Remain with us forever
Liz, Duncan and Rebecca.
