Lines in memory of Floyd Rice aged
years II months and days, who died
at the home of his grandfather, April
14th, 1900.
We shall miss thee sadly miss thee,
In our earthly home below
Where there are so many sorrows,
That in Heaven We ne'er shall know
We miss thee from thy home dear Floyd
We miss thee from thy place
a shadow DER our life is cast,
We miss the sunshine of thy face
Now we bereft must do without thee
AS God our father willed
There is a vacant chair at home,
Which never can be filled.
We hoped that God would let thee live,
For many happy years,
But He from earth did call thee home
And we are left alone in tears
Twas hard to part with thee, dear
Floyd.
Whom we so fondly loved,
But now it soothes our aching hearts,
TO know thou art at home above.
A FRIEND.

An angel in the Book of Life
Wrote down an infants birth,
Then added e'er he closed the book,
Too beautiful for earth
Then rs the reaper. death passed by,
Tie read these words and smiled,
Then gently folded in his arms,
That lovely little child.
