Little Willie May bore her suf-
ferings most patiently. During
all her illness, she was the same
gentle little girl, and always had
a smile for those she loved.
1t seems hard to give up our
loved one, but, "Of such is the
kingdom Of Heaven. What
could be sweeter than such an
innocent little life, with all its
beauty and love. 1T cometh
forth like a flower but is cut
down. Life is short on this
earth but everlasting in Heaven.
Willie Mays was one of gentle
ness, kindness, and loving ways,
and of thoughts for those she
loved.
May Gods blessings rest upon
her broken-hearted parents, Sis
ters, and loved ones, and may
they be comforted for they shall
meet her in heaven.
