Gard Of Thanks.

We wish to-express our heart
felt thanks to our many friends
for their symp athletic love and
kindness shown us. during the
short illness and death of our
beloved child and brother.
Without yourloving kindness
and sympathetic care and the
help of our heavenly father, we
could not bear the load which
burdened our broken hearts;
but knowing that Gcd is just
and does not burden us with
more than we can stand, we
have only to better prepare our
selves to meet Little Duff in
that land where grief is un-
known.
Thanking you again for your
unwielding care and may Goo
bless and guide each of you
through this short life and at
last bring us home, where there
will be no more parting or sor-
row, is the earnest prayer of the
loved ones he left behind.
