1, 1920.
A light is from our household gone.
A voice we loved is still;
A place is vacant in our home
That never can be filed.
We cannot tell who next may fall
Beneath thy Christening rod;
One must be first, but let US all
Prepare to meet our God.
Often when the day is brightest;
There's a gloom steals in our hearts,
And it brings to us sad memories
OF the day God did us part.
BY her FATHER and SISTERS.
The hands that labored hard to save
you.
Labored sorrowfully in vain;
But in our memory your dear face we
see.
And we love you always the same.
