An affectionate daughter, loving

riticing mother, ii cherished sister, a
good neighbor and friend true
and beautiful woman has been thus
translated from earth to heaven.
Were it indeed true that the end
of life is death, and that religion finds

this beloved one, But with those
glorious truths that teach the unity
