Jack: A special brother-in-law and friend.

When hearts are filled with sorrow
There is little one can say
For only time can comfort us
When loved ones pass away
So may the time be hastened
Until sorrow will depart
And many happy memories
Will live on within our hearts

Love from Liz and your family in Dunedin
