Dad has greeted Mom with open arms and a fishing pole. He has waited patiently for nine years to share their favorite pastime together. In their wedding book is a poem that truly represents them. It reads:
It’s we two, when the days are bright
It’s we two, in the stormy weather.
Facing the world with its work and strife.
Fearing naught of its pain and blight.
Sharing the burdens and joys of life
For it’s we two, we two together.
So now, our dearest Mom, you are with Dad again for that’s where you truly belong – the two of you together for eternity.
Elene’s family will receive visitors from 5:00 until 7:00 pm, Tuesday, June 11th, at Malloy & Son Funeral Home.
Funeral service will be 10:00 am, Wednesday, June 12th, at Malloy & Son Funeral Home with burial following at Forest Park East Cemetery in Webster, TX.
The family would like to thank the entire staff at The Hampton Willowbrook for the compassionate and loving care they gave our mother for the past 6 ½ years. We will be forever grateful to them.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to The American Diabetes Association or a charity of your choice.
