In Memory

In memory of my mother, Hulda
Wells Williams, who
passed away June 10, 1947
Sad and sudden was the call
OF one so dear and loved by all
Her loving heart had ceased to beat
Before l knew it she was gone
A bitter grief, shock severe
To part with one / loved so dear,
God loved her too and thought it
best
So He took her to eternal rest
But only those who loved her best
can tell,
The heartache of not saying last
farewell.
Sadly missed by her daughter,
Georganna Williams Munday.
