Barbara Ann McCullough Roe

August 31, 1950 – October 3, 2010

What would we give her hand to clasp,

Her patient face to see;

To hear her voice, to see her smile,

As in the days that used to be.

But some sweet day we’ll meet again,

Beyond the toil and strife,

And clasp each others hand once more,

In Heaven that happy life.
