In Loving Remembrance of

Larry Hoagland

6/26/57 – 7/23/12

We miss you in so many ways,

We miss the things you used to say,

And when old times we do recall,

It’s then we miss you most of all.

An understanding heart,

An intelligent mind,

Skilled hands that created works of art,

You were one of a kind.

Your smile is gone forever,

And your hands we cannot touch,

We have so many memories of you,

You were loved so much.

Forever in Our Hearts

Tari, Landan & Kylee
