Our thoughts, prayers, support and love to you Aunt Joan & C.J..

Uncle Floyd always had a life that was rough
but it made him strong & tough
He chose to spend some years alone
then his heart was stolen by a loving angel named Joan
Together they made a life
as they chose to become husband and wife
Together they found a way
and raised a beautiful lady named C.J.
Now it is time for him to part
but with all of us he shall always live on in our heart.
Days now will be empty and cold
as the plan was together to grow old
But we need to remember with each passing day
How blessed we were to have known him this way.
As our hearts ache and we shed our tears
we have to smile knowing with his brother Bill he is now playing cards and sharing beers.
