Linking The Generations
 
Our generations are linked together
By Marriage, Time, and love,
Blending, joining, growing,
Guided from above.
The chain is strengthened year to year
By those we hold so dear---
Elders filled with insight
And hopes for futures bright.
The chain continues growing
With joys and sorrows shared.
Memories, Tradition's, and Fun
Make Our Family One.

There was not time to do it all
