In loving remembrance of our deal
son. Luster MINIS, who departed
this life one year ago, May 81. 1924;
Thy sufferngs ended with the day
But Fived he 20 it's close.
And breathed the long night away,
With statue-like repose.
But where the sun in all its state
Illumined the eastern skies,
He passed through glory's morning
gate
And entered Paradise.
And so We sit, dear Luster and thinl
of you each day.
Our hearts are sad and we will weel
as we did when you passed away
The parents, Mr.. Willis and Mrs
Fannie MINIS, 525 10th Ave-, N
