Mareta Poole Saul's Memorial
On what would have been her 93rd birthday, family and friends came together to celebrate the life of Mareta Saul.

The setting was the picturesque Wayfarers Chapel in Palos Verdes, overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The weather was beautiful, the birds were singing and the love abundant.

Mary & Phil Sabol opened their lovely home for a luncheon immediately following the service.

To follow is a copy of the program with links to each person's tribute.

The Lord's Prayer
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory for ever. Amen.

A Time of Sharing

Seventh Inning Stretch
Sung together

Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd,
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks,
I don't care if I never come back,
So it's root, root, root for the Angels,
If they don't win it's a shame,
And it's one, two, three strikes, you're out,
At the old ball game.

All stand, join hands and in unison

Oh give thanks unto the Lord for he is good,
For his mercy endureth forever.
