Not a Day Will Go By,

By Kelly Roper

Not a minute, not an hour, not a day will go by, we won't think of you Judy and smile or sigh. You enriched our lives while you were here. Now we must learn to live without you so near. Time may soften the blow, but your memory won't fade. Not a day will go by we won't wish you’d have stayed.
