NOTE OF THANKS Your presence here this day, the card you mailed along the way, the service you stopped to render, the gift you brought with thoughts so tender. The prayers you said played a major part in easing the pain that was in our hearts. Each helped us find the strength to bear 
the loss of one so dear. It was to us a great comfort indeed to see you in time of our sorrow and need. So from hearts which still need mending, We thank you sincerely again and again.

DEATH IS ONLY A PART OF LIFE 
We enter this world from "THE GREAT UNKNOWN" 
And GOD gives each SPIRIT a form of its own 
And endows this form with a heart and a soul 
To spur women on to his ultimate goal. .. 
For all women are born to RETURN as they CAME 
And birth and death  are in essence the same 
And we are but born to die and arise 
For beyond this world in beauty there lies 
The purpose of death which is but to gain 
LIFE EVERLASTING in GOD'S GREAT DOMAIN... 
And no one need make this journey alone 
For GOD has promised to take care of HIS own.
