IN MEMORY

In memory Of my sister, Lii
liam Bates, who passed away
nine years ago, Oct. 20, 1910.
They say time heals all sorrow,
And helps one to forget;
And time so far has only proved
How much we miss you yet.
And God gave us strength to
face it,
And COURAGE to bear the blow;
But what It means to lose you,
No one will ever know.
Sadly missed by
