IN MEMORIAM

In memory of our dear mother and
sister, Birdie Truitt Bennett. who
departed from us. July Is. 1916:
We little knew the sorrow that await
ed us that day,
We did not know that God was COM
ing and take mother and our sis
ter away.
She left this world without a tear.
She said goodbye to none;
Her spirit flew before we knew
Her days on earth were done.
Her troubles were so many
Like the sand upon the shore,
God said you bore them dearly
I'll take you home forever more.
Sadly missed by Daughter. Brother
and Sister. II
