:
DEDICATED To The Bereaved Family
In Memory Of JESS O . BLACKWELL
There comes a time for all of us When we must say good-bye. But Faith and Hope and Love And Trust, can never, never die. Although the Curtain falls at last, Is that a cause to grieve The futures fairer than the past If only we believe. And Trust in Gods eternal care, So when the Master calls, Lets say that life is still more fair, Although the curtain falls.
