"Dead''

L"
In the evening of June 27th at his
home IN .donroe County little Jimmie
fell asleep in Jesus to awake in the
other and better world God 50 gently
called him to come home to be with
him.
In the evening Of May 9Th 1921 q
little life was ushered into this world
and a fond young mother looked into
the face of her first born son, day by
day she and her husband watched this
infant grow, as the child grew ply
sically this mother and father by the
help Of a loving Saviour were mold
ing and shaping a character that was
destined to leave its mark upon this
world. Then all too soon there APP
peared upon the horizon a dark even
ing cloud which rapidly grew and
spread until their sun of happiness
was concealed as We stand today, with
this sorrowing family In the shadow
of tfis great cloud we shall try TO
pierce it's dark folds with an eye OF
faith and trust and get a glimpse OF
the great beyond we know but Oh
how hard 1t is to reconcile our aching
hearts to the fact that death is only
the gate way to life.
All was done that loving hands
could do for their darling boy but Cos
needed him for some grander ana
nobler work and in his youthful pur
ity has taken him home.
