Thomas, Dave (Memoriam) IN LOVING MEMORY OF DAVE THOMAS June 18, 1955 - January 18,2003 We cannot see you with our eyes or hear you with our ears, but thoughts of you are with us still and often dry our tears. You whisper in the rustling leaves that linger in the fall, and in the gentle evening breeze, We are sure we hear you call. A part of you remains with us that none can take away, It gives us strength to carry on at the dawning of each day. We think of happy times we shared, and then we softly sigh, but this we know we'll meet again and never say goodbye. "Happy Birthday, Dave! " Karen, Mom, Dad and Family Published in the Standard-Examiner on 6/18/2005.
