Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1920-10-14

Each hour but comes to me anew,
With bitter sense Of loss.
God. in mercy, pity me.
Help me to bear my cross.
We knew it was not death, but life,
When Jesus stopped to say:
II am the way, the truth. the light,
And led my parents away.
LOVING DAUGHTER MATTE.
Fold them. Father. in Thine arms
And may they henceforth be
A messenger of love between
Our human hearts and thee.
Sc we will try to still our heartache
And do our best to smile,
For God will let come to you
After a little while.
THEIR ONLY son. WALTER.
Ny life's not the same without them;
In fact, find cheer,
Trying to live my life alone.
Without their presence here
And bear my cross in silence,
Awaiting my call away,
And pray that God will grant my prayer
That we shall meet some day.
DEVOTED DAUGHTER HELEN.
Not forever have they left US.
Those for whom we shed our tears
Not forever shall our mourning
Darker long the weary years.
There shall be a joyons meeting
When the reign Of death Is Ger,
In the home where all are happy,
In the land of evermore.

IN-LAW MR.. AND MRS. COOK.
