Macil Sears Campbell

December 2, 1923 — July 19, 2015

AFTERGLOW

I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times, and laughing times, and bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve to dry before the sun,
Of happy memories that I leave when life is done.
I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one,
I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles when day is gone.

Our wonderful mother and grandmother, Macil Sears Campbell , 91, of Oak Hill, WV went to be with her Lord and Savior on Sunday, July 19, 2015 at Bowers Hospice House in Beckley, WV.
