MARTIN, Murray In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandfather who passed away March 16, 2001 I long to see his kindly face, I long to see his smile, I long to see his tender eyes, And to sit by his side for awhile. I long to hold his hand in mine, And tell him how much I cared, And how glad I am to know it was me, With whom his life he shared. No one will ever take his place, And no one ever can, Brighten my life the way he did, This sweet and gentle man. I know I'll wait until we meet, Upon the other shore, Where life goes on forever, And we shall part no more. --Sadly missed and lovingly remembered by his wife Isabelle When I was just a little child learning how to walk, I struggled and stumbled on my own, But when I held my father's hand, what a change it brought. There was no place I could not go. No road too long, no hill too steep. Silent strength was in my father's hand. Silent strength gave me the power to stand. When he held my hand, His silent strength was mine. We love you and miss you Dad, --Eleanor & Robert, Paul & Sharron, Karen & Mark and grandchildren Published in the Windsor Star on 3/16/2005
