Albert F. Spawn In Memoriam

IN MEMORIAM

Albert F. Spawn

4/25/25-12/27/05
 

I know our journey together

Hasn’t ended yet,

I try to patiently wait

And be careful not to fret!
 

I’m looking forward to the day

That will be so grand,

When I can reach out to you

And once again grasp your hand!
 

Merry Christmas

Love,

Bet and Kids
