Anderson-McQueen Funeral Home-Tyrone Chapel 727347-6636 With you a part of me hath passed away; For in the peopled forest of my mind A tree made leafless by this wintry wind Shall never don again its green array. Chapel and fireside, country road and bay, Have something of their friendliness resigned; Another, if I would, I could not find, And I am grown much older in a day. But yet I treasure in my memory Your gift of charity, and young heart?s ease, And the dear honor of your amity; For these once mine, my life is rich with these. And I scarce know which part may greater be? What I keep of you, or you rob from me. by George Santayana
