IN MEMORY OF
MRS. VIM. PARKER

Our beloved friend and sister has
passed to her home above,
Her soul lies there in glory, right
eousness and love.
She has answered to her Saviour,
His call she has obeyed,
Never from His sheltering arms
has she ever strayed.
She is gone, how we shall miss her,
She was ever good and true,
To the last she loved us everyone,
till she went to her home
anew;
She was our dear sister, and a
friend to all,
She always helped and answered
every need and call;
Although she has left us, we shall
mourn not,
For she shall ere be revered, our
dear sister shall ne'er be for
got.
Let us bow our heads and pray,
That we may follow her some day ?;
Let us in her footsteps trod
In the holy blessed sod;
Till we find in glory bright,
Our beloved sister in Gods holy
light.
FROM THE FAMILY.
