You were a father so good and kind, I had the privilege to call you mine, Whoever said sorrow would heal with time, Could never have had a darling Dad like mine.

STEFFENS, Collin Reginald. Called home 22.7.97. Nothing on earth can ever replace, The sound of your voice and smiling face, But memories are keepsakes, which never grow old. These are the things I treasure like gold. Your loving wife Deidree (GS19Jul2000M)

IN MEMORIAM

STEFFENS, Edna May 10/11/1998 May the gentle wind blow softly, And whisper for you to hear, That I will always love you, And forever hold you near. I miss you every moment mum, Of every single day, Life's emptiness without you, Just never goes away. Your memory has not faded, The hurting does not cease, But within my heart there shines a star, For you are now at peace. They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason, Will change the way I feel. I hold you close within my heart, And always speak your name, So walk with me throughout my life, Until we meet again. Put your arms around her, Lord, Touch her smiling face, For she is someone precious, Who can never be replaced. You can't come back I know it's true, But someday Mum, I'll come to you. I miss you my beautiful mother. Love alwavs, Lyn Brian and grandchildren. (GS08Nov2000M)

STEFFENS, Edna May. 6/3/34 10/11/98. I do not need a special day, To bring you to my mind, For a day without a thought of you, Is so very hard to find. Time may hide my tears, But the memories you have left me, Will remain throughout the years. Remembered with love. Allen. (GS08Nov2000M)

STEFFENS, Edna May. 6.3.34 10.11.98. Tender thoughts still bring a tear, For our Mum we lost and loved so dear. Two years may have passed, But you are always in our thoughts and forever in our hearts. Sadly missed. Jenny, Lloyd, Vicki, Lindsay and families. (GS08Nov2000M)
