In memory of our dear husband dad and grandad Harry O. Cheetum who passed away Dec. 29 1944. There is a loneliness within our hearts that never can be filled. It was so hard to lose him but it was as God willed. God knows how much we miss him. Never shall his memory fade. Judging other people often prevents us from appraising ourselves. With love from Wife Son and Family.
