    They Came Here… copyright © Loraine Cox Metz, 2004, 1984 They came here---built their homes, found jobs and raised their families. They attended the churches and schools. Many are laid to rest near their homes. Others came, worked at a job, visited with family or friends and moved on. Their name and presence were not forgotten. Table of Contents Communities .

Several other interesting bits are in this book, scattered here and there . Old Friends New friends, I cherish, and treasure their worth, But old friends to me are the salt of the earth. Friends are like garments, that everyone wears-- New ones are needed for dress-up affairs. But when we're at leisure, we're more apt to choose The clothes that we purchased with last season's shoes. Things we grow used to, are things we love best-- The ones we are certain have weathered the test. And isn't it true (since we're talking of friends) That new ones bring pleasure when everything blends, But when we want someone who thinks as we do, And who fits, as I mentioned, like last summer's shoe-- We turn to the friends who have stuck thru' the years Who echo our laughter and try all our tears; They know every weakness and fault we possess, But somehow forget them, in friendship's caress.
