IN MEMORIAM
Mrs. ROwand

We know that she has entered heaven
Through Gods redeeming grace,
With out-stretched hands, and eager
ness
She meets Him face to face.
And in vision glorious
We see her standing there.
For her, there never more shall be
Pain or worldly care.
Her loved one whom she leaves, shall
mourn.
But a vacant place shall be
Within the circles of our church
Where she labored faithfully.
We shall not see her CHEEKY smile
Or hear her pleasant voice,
But when we meet some day in heaven
Again we shall rejoice.
Heartfelt and sincere sympathy,
DR.. and Mrs. G. D. Elliott,
Mrs. Magdalena d. H. Baker.
Our community is enshrouded in
gloom. In the passing of Mrs Row.
and we have indeed lost friend. A
beautiful soul has been transplanted
in Gods eternal heaven there to await
the coming Of those whose lives have
yet been spared. Being aware of the
pure consecrated lives of her family
as we are we realize that they can say
with confident faith, "Thy will be
DONE"

has gone to prepare is their home.

Q Gcd, our hope is in Thee. We

where there is darkness but looking up
we can see the light of Thy glory on
the hilltops above us, and, the vision
dlspels our fears and fills US with
hope and courage. Fill our hearts
with longing for Thee greater than
the longing Of those who wait for the
morning and grant US that knowledge
Of Thyself may sufficiently strengthen
and sustain us until the last trumpet
