IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of my dear hus-

this life February 2S. 1909:
Just eighteen years ago today.
God saw his suffering,
Knew what was best,
And took him~away.
l often sit and wonder,
Why you suffered here so long,
And waited so patiently for your
Saviour
To call you home.
But we hope to meet you again
Over on the golden shore.
Sadly missed by Wife and Children.

Softly at night the stars are cleaning,
Upon a little grave.
Where sleeping without dreaming
Lies one we loved but could not save.

Not from our hearts. not from our love,
But to dwell with the angels
In Heaven above.
Dearly loved and sadly missed by his

this life on February %, 1928:
The month of February is gone
To us the saddest of the year
For his memory is as dear today
AS the hour he passed away.
His cheerful smiles and kindly ways
Are pleasant to recall,
He had a smile for everyone
And died beloved by all.
So sad, so sudden was the call
His sudden death surprised us all,
God saw the suffering,
He knew the best
And took him to his heavenly rest.
