In Loving Memory of George Humeniuk   Born March 11, 1952   Entered Into Eternal Rest November 29, 2008   After Glow   I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one. I’d like to leave an after glow of smiles when life is done. I’d like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, Of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I’d like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun of happy memories that I leave When life is done.
