In sorrow we bend our heads, and
with great respect we turn our minds
upon the loved ones departed this life.
The griefs we share are for our mutual
loss.
Today we are in heart and mind
once more with the loved ones, the
dear friends with whom we talked and
walked. and held sweet communion.
In spirit we abide with them, and our
love is everlasting, even unto the end.
While our life blood is warm in our
veins we shall always fOndly remember
them, even TO the remOtest time.
They are ours, and we arc their s,
only death separates US. While they
lived great was our respect, dying they
left a rich legacy of love, and richer
vet with the hope we shall meet again
when the glorious morn Of the resur-
reetion shall come upon the earth.
