In Memoriam DeGeorge, Rosemary In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill. We reflect back with sadness at the treachery you lived with in order to give us a home. May you now be enjoying the peace you deserve. Happy Birthday.

Love Always, Gary and Marion. Kelso, Langston P. Lang, one long year ago you closed those beautiful eyes forever. It's hard to understand the reason some things happen, only God knows why. I think of you today and every day with love in my heart and tears in my eyes.

Each day we had together was special. Our love was a precious gift. I have no words to express how much miss you. You are etched in my heart forever. Your Wife, Alyce (46 years).

Sardisco, Louis A. Sr. Dad, it has been 11 long years without seeing your wonderful smile. The emptiness in our hearts will never subside. We will love and miss you until the day we are all together again.

Give Mom a kiss for us, and take good care of each other. Loving children, Lou, Anita and Russ.
