one brother four sisters. and two
half brothers, his father one sister,
two brothers and one half brother
having already preceded him to the
spirit land. His remains were laid
to rest in the cemetery at Red Bank.
In spite of the fact that he has always
been cripple and has undergone
much suffering. yet he was always
bright and cheerful, and was source
of JOY and comfort to those around
him.
He Was a member Of Nazareth Lu-
theran church and professed much
interest and devotion in the faith OF
our Lord Jesus Christ. The afflicted
lad held a sacred spot in the hearts OF
all his friends and loved ones, and his
place can never be filled.
A precious one from us is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in his wisdom has recalled,
The boon His love has given.
And though the body slumbers here
The soul is safe in Heaven.
Gone but nOf forgotten,
Sleep on dear Lee:
And take thy rest,
God called thee home,
He thought it best.
Heaven now retains our treasure,
Earth the lonely casket keeps;
And the sunbams love to linSer,
Where our Lee sleeps.
Again we hope to meet YOU,
When the day of life is fled;
And in heaven with JOY to greet you
Where nof arewell tears are shed.
