In Memoriam In Loving Memory Of My Dad ROBERT "WOODY" FOSTER Oct. 26, 1943 March 8, 1986 had a wonderful father. To me he was one of the best. I simply wasn't ready when God called him for eternal rest. I didn't get a chance to tell' him of all the love for him in my heart, but I know it's just a matter of time that God will keep us apart.

To those who have a father, cherish him with care, for you'll never know the sorrow 'til you see his empty chair. Sadly missed by your loving son, Tracy Card of Thanks would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to those who sent cards and called by telephone at the time of my husband's (Thomas Foley) passing. Maria Foley THANK YOU GOD Say nine Hail Mary's for nine days and ask for three wishes: first business, second and third is for the impossible. Have this published on the ninth day and your wishes will come true even though you don't believe in it. W.B..
