In loving memory of Viola Mabel Brecken
Beautiful companion, wife and mother for 72 years.
May 3, 2004
The moment you had passed away,
My heart had split in two,
The one side filled with memories,
The other died with you.
I think of you in silence
I often speak your name,
I feel again the bitter blow
That never should have came.
Each morning when I awake
I know that you are gone
No one knows the heartache
As I try to carry on
My heart still aches in sadness
Secret tears will flow
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.
My thoughts are always with you
Your place no one can fill
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still.
They say time heals everything,
But I know this isn’t so
Because it hurts as much today
As it did one year ago.
Forever loved and missed
Husband Elmer and family.
