MEMORIAM (from local newspaper, date unknown)
In loving memory of a dear HUSBAND - FRANK E. COLBY
If I could have one wish today
It would not be for gold
But just to have you back with me
As in the days of old.
A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke my heart, to prove to me,
He only takes the best.
Sweet is the memory, dear is his name.
Deep in my heart, he will always remain.
You gave me love in the fullest measure
Care and devotion for me to treasure
You shared my joys, my hopes, and tears.
God Bless you, for those precious years.
Wife, Flora


Frank is buried at: North Cemetery
