IN MEMORIAM

In memory of Eli Adam Haas

2/10/79 – 1/31/05

* * * * *

“Memories Of You”

The angels led you safely home,

But you left some things behind.

Treasured gifts beyond compare,

Those of a special kind.

You left behind your gift of love,

You gave so faithfully.

You left behind the ones you loved,

And many cherished memories.

And from early dawn to setting sun,

Each day our whole life through,

Our hearts will hold a special place

For memories of you.

Lovingly missed by

Jason, Amy, Austin, Ashley

and Jadin Haas;

Heidi, Micah, Reggi

and Lincoln Raffety;

Mom, Steve, Cody
