They Are Gone, But Not Forgotten2020

By Bob Martin

Though they stand with us no more,

We know they wait at heaven’s door.

While with us for such a little while,/

They touched our hearts with a friendly smile./

They taught us life is a time of bliss,/

Now they’ve been touched by an angel’s kiss./

They gave their time and talents, too./

They believed in us and all we do./

So as we hold this Service here on earth./

Let’s shout to God what each was worth! /

Let the chimes ring loud so they’ll know in heaven,

Why we remember them at the Hour of Eleven./

They’re gone from us now, but we know they cared.

For their hopes and dreams with us they shared./

They left their mark so all could see,

They made life better for you and me./

So as we sing the “Vacant Chair”,

Let’s remember that they’re waiting there./

To bring us home and to guide the way,

We remember these Elks in this Service today.
