willing hand. Thy fond and earnest care. My home is dark without
thee. I miss thee everywhere.”

The fairest flower
we fondly love. How soon it fades and dies. |
| |
|
A precious one from
us has gone. A voice we loved is stilled. A place is vacant in our
home that never can be filled. |
| |
|
God in his wisdom
has recalled the body his love had given. And though the body
slumbers here, the soul is safe in heaven.

No pains, no grief,
no ____ feat.
Can reach our loved one sleeping here. |

When the one you
love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. |

us is gone. A voice we loved is stilled. A place is vacant in our
home that can never be fulfilled.

This life was
beauty, truly goodness and love.
Dear Father with a reverent hand this thy memory given, while one by
one thy household band God reunites in Heaven.

Our Father, Gone
from our home, but not from our hearts. |

blooming into life, enticed an angel’s eye, too pure for earth he
said, “Come Home,” and bade the floweret die. |
| |
|
We shall meet in
the sweet by and by.
