I'm memory of Mrs. Ettie Hinkle
Scoles who passed away six years
ago February 5, 1888.
Six years have passed and gone
Since last we saw her face,
There has been both joy and sorrow,
But no one can take her place.
There is many a lesson in life we
learn,
And the price is often heavy,
For many lesson we might have
learned
Comes along too late-not early.
In these years we recall sweet
memories
Of Mother when she was here,
But then to our hearts, comes sad
ness,
Sadness of wondering and fear.
But then again, we remember
In days of long ago
How "Jesus" came and suffered
That comfort we might know.
So tho our hearts are heavy
We're trying to- be brave and true
And we are making an honest effort
Dear Mother" again to see you.
The Family
