ROAD TO ETERNITYLife is but a stopping place, A pause in what's to be. A resting place alo ng the road, To sweet eternity. We all have different journeys, Differe nt paths along the way. We all were meant to learn some things, But nev er meant to stay. Our destination is a place, Far greater than we know. F or some the journey's quicker, For some the journey's slow. And when the j ourney finally ends,We'll claim a great reward. And find an everlasting pe ace.FARGO FUNERAL HOME400 W. Wisconsin AvenueKaukauna 766-6200
