If tears could build a stairway
and memories build a lane,
We would walk all the way to Heaven
to bring you home again.
We think of you in silence,
we often speak your name.
But all we have are your memories,
and a picture in a frame.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
for you did not go alone,
for part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
He put you in his Garden,
and laid you there to rest.
God's Garden trust be beautiful,
for He only takes the best.
ABOUT US
In the late 1980's, a group of citizens from the East Prince area met to discuss the possibility of establishing a co-operative funeral home. Two such homes were operating successfully in Prince County, namely the West Prince Funeral Home in Palmer Road and the Evangeline Funeral Home in Urbainville. As a result, on January 24th, 1989, the East Prince Funeral Co-operative Ltd. was formed.
