In Loving Memory of My Beloved Wife, Lana Marie
I thought of you today, but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday, and will tomorrow too.
I think of you in silence and make no outward show,
For what it meant to lose you, only those who love you know.
Remembering you is easy. I do it every day.
It's the heartache of losing you that never goes away.
Your memory will always be with me
Love, John
To My Loved Ones
Tho I have had to leave you, whom I love, to go along the silent
way, grieve not, nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of
me, as if I were beside you.
So, when you hear a word I used to say, or touch a thing I loved, let
not your thoughts of me be sad, for I am loving you just as I always
have. Lana Becraft.• She was buried at the National Cemetery Administration. BECRAFT, LANA MARIE
