Be not sad I passed away, for in you, my children, I live each day. There is a little of me in all of you, in each new one I live anew. So you see, I’ll never really be gone, as long as there are children to carry on. I’ve had my share of love, sorrow and strife; I have lived a full and fruitful life. So do not mourn, and do not weep, for I have earned this peaceful sleep. I love you all: Mom Gunderson East Funeral & Cremation Care 5203 Monona Drive (608) 221-5420
