Our Stars

By Suzie Dorey

‘Look up to the sky tonight.

Pick two stars that shine real bright.

These stars where made for you and me,

To watch over us and keep us free.

Like the eagle soaring gracefully in flight.

Put your dreams on his wings flying high in the sky,

And you will never have to ask me why.

When you think of me at night,

Remember our stars that shine real bright.

Dream a dream of me and you.

So my darling,

Look up to our stars.

Then you will never have to wonder where we are.’

    I would like to send my condolences to the family for the loss of Evelyn. I have fond memories of family gatherings where we played records and dance half the night. I live in Alberta now and have not been back to Meaford since 1999. I will always love this family and miss everyone all the time. My heart goes out to Charlie, Charlie Jr and Dereck and their families especially. Love you all.
