IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our mother,
Susan Anne Howard, who passed
away July 18th, 1884.
There is sad and lonely feeling
Deep within our hearts today,
For we're thinking of a loved one,
Who's been gone one year today.
You suffered hours and hours of pain
To wait for cure but all in vain,
Till God alone knew what was best,
He called you home to give you rest.
We often sit and think of you,
And speak of how you died.
To think you could not say goodbye,
Before you closed your eyes.
For all of us you did your best
Oh! God grant her eternal rest.
BY her devoted children.
