Harold

warm gratitude for the quirks of life

and a gentle humor that manifested

as chuckles of irrepressible joy

we will miss this life-affirming gentleman

Elsie

Grandma Elsie, slender, unassuming

with her quiet ways but wise

peeking eyes in sharp observation

and gentle, compassionate laugh

with those of us caught in human

shortcomings now within two years

of a century of living never luxurious

but always ready to help

loving legacy she knows in family

bonding and Harmon generosity
