William Earl "Bill" Crowley

When I Must Leave You When I must leave you for a little while, Please do not grieve and shed wild tears and hug your sorrow to you through the years But start out bravely with a gallant smile. And for my sake and in my name, live on and do all things the same. Feed not your loneliness on empty days, But fill each working hour in useful ways. Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer. And I, in turn will comfort you and hold you near and never, never be afraid to die. For I am waiting for you in the sky. by Helen Steiner Rice Memorial services for Mr. William Earl "Bill" Crowley, 60 of Gilmer will be held at 2:00 P.M., Saturday April 20, 2013, at Croley Funeral Home Chapel in Gilmer with Reverend Andy Plunk officiating.
