In David’s memory, the following poem by Dylan Thomas:
And Death Shall Have No Dominion
And death shall have no dominion
Dead men naked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone
They shall have stars at elbow and foot;
Though they go mad they shall be sane.
Though they sink through the sea they shall rise again;
Though lovers be lost love shall not;
And death shall have no dominion.
And death shall have no dominion.
Under the windings of the sea
They lying long shall not die windily;
Twisting on racks when sinews give way,
Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break;
Faith in their hands shall snap in two,
And the unicorn evils run them through;
Split all ends up they shan’t crack;
And death shall have no dominion.
And death shall have no dominion.
No more may gulls cry at their ears
Or waves break loud on the seashores;
Where blew a flower may a flower no more
Lift its head to the blows of the rain;
Though they be mad and dead as nails,
Heads of the characters hammer through daisies;
Break in the sun till the sun breaks down,
And death shall have no dominion.

When Someone you love becomes a memory, The Memory becomes a treasure.
Joe, my friend, no longer here.
No longer suffering, no longer in fear.
Did I ever tell you, you saved me?
gave me your friendship so freely.
Can’t repay that debt to you,
owe you so much, what can I do?
Too soon gone, but I won’t cry.
I’ll reminisce as days go by,
your laugh, your smile, your quirky ways.
These memories brighten the harder days.
Questions surface but I push them back.
You had your reasons for your final act.
I’s only fitting that a man who embraced life wholeheartedly
should have a place in the World Wide Cemetery. We love and miss
you our friend.
Linda Mason has created a site in honor of Joe’s memory.

Perry Paul Batson, WWII veteran with numerous medals, wonderful provider and husband to Anna R. Batson; cherished father to Peggy Batson Cowick and Martha Batson Comberrel; greatly remembered grandfather to Christopher Charles Comberrel and Lauren Rae Cowick. We will always love you and miss you greatly. You continue to be the wind beneath our wings…
Our wonderful father was taken home to heaven January 9, 1999. We will miss him and think of him daily. This poem is a tribute to this wonderful man we love.
God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle’s flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew his masterpiece was complete,
and he was known as Our Dad.

In loving memory of our Mother. My you be at rest and without pain.
I visited the cemetery
As I often sometimes do
I gazed upon the headstone
and said a prayer or two.
I placed a wreath upon her grave
Where my moms body lay
I shed my tears and spoke of love
Then slowly walked away
I don’t kmow why, but I turned back
And I saw an awesome sight
through the majestic tree above her grave
I saw a radiant light
So struck by it’s beauty
And the bending of shadowed boughs
My heart was filled with joy
And my spirit was aroused.
It’s as if mom was giving me a message
And suddenly I realized
Her home is still within my heart
And no one ever really dies
There come a time one must leave this earth
But they are never far away
And they hear our every thought and word
When we go to them to pray.
My thought began to turn to times long ago
As I smiled and moved forward
Still feeling the lights glow
I felt the light go with me
Mom had sent me a message
On this wonderful day
Upon the radio was playing
As the day turned into night
Don’t worry, just be happy
and you know, She was right.

~ For Norma ~
So few people, walk this earth who have love in their hearts and room in their hearts to celebrate other’s happiness and good fortune. Norma, you always gave yourself to those who needed you and you found compassion and humor to give to those around you who were troubled — even if it was just for a fleeting moment. You laughed and you savored each moment spent in the company of others. You helped others less fortunate to achieve self fulfillment. You never stopped learning, and you never stopped teaching. Norma, you created a garden. One of love, that is bountiful with beautiful colors. Norma’s tremendous garden of love and in the end when when we all have to take off our mask, you found out that you weren’t wearing one, and You didn’t need a mirror to see the beautiful truth and you ended up with the face you deserved… May God be with you always. I will miss you for as long as I live. Jane

“For Our Grandmother”
You touched all of our lives in ways that are to numerous to count. You loved each one of us completely and unconditionally. You had a way of making each one of us feel like we were “your very favorite”. But yet we knew you loved us all. You gave us all the gift of love and taught us all the gift of giving. You are loved and treasured. We carry you in our hearts today, tomorrow and always. We miss you…………..
