GREEN. GERTRUDE. In sad but loving
remembranee Of our devoted wife and
this life one year ago today, January %,
1896
Her life was unselhsh.
For others she lived,
Not for what she could get,
But for what she always could give.
Doing little things for others,
HELPING where she could,
Never making much pretending,
Always doing good.
Her sweet memory is all we have left,
Her cares are all at rest,
But thankful are we who today can say
We loved her and did our best.
Your weary hours and days of pain
And troubled nights are past,
And in our aching hearts we feel
You have found sweet rest at last,
We watched you fade like flower,
But could not make you stay
We nursed you with tender kindness
Until God called you away.

JENNINGS. ELDER HOWARD H. Sacred
to the memory of our loved one, Elder
HOWARD H. JENNINGS. who fell asleep
six years ago today, January 90, l941.
How we miss the welcome footsteps
OF the one we loved so dear
Oft we listen for your coming.
Feeling sure that you are near.
Your thoughts were always so full for us,
You never could forget.
That you are watching us yet
DEVOTED WIFE. K, B. JENNINGS,
Your weary hours and days of pain
And troubled nights are past,
And in our aching hearts we know
haU
We watched you fade like a flower,
But could not make you stay,
We nursed you with tender care,
Until God called you away. VIOLA.
I think of you in silence,
So few have seen me weep.
Suf' many silent tears are shed
When others are asleep.
Your life was unselfish.
For others you lived,
Not for what you received.
EuNICE.
The ANGELS came in silent tread
And bore you home on the wings of love
To that sweet home above.
Peaceful be thy rest, dear father,
In life / loved you dearly,
In death do the same. MILDRED.
God gave me g wonderful father,
One of the worlds very best
And when on earth bis work was Done
God called him home to rest
He is gone. but not forgotten,
A face / loved so well;
No one knows how I miss my father,
No one can ever tell HAZEL
In my heart your memory fingers
Thinking when I am alone
Vow we spent the hours together
When we would be sitting in our home.
But one day the Reaper came,
Broke our family circle apart,
Took him to rest forever,
Leaving me with an aching heart:
WINSTON.
Soon the tolls of life will cease.
Then no sorrow We shall know;
Then we shall dwell in Joy and peace,
ROBBED in garments white as snow;
BILLIE AND JAMES.
Some sweet day, know not when,
l shall clasp your hand,
And then never part again.
On that COLLEEN strand. ALTHEA.
