The Everlasting Light
Those we love must someday pass Beyond our present sight . . .
M ust leave us and the world we know Without their radiant light.
But we know that like a candle Their lovely light w ill shine To brighten up another place
More perfect . . . more divine. A n d in the realm o f Heaven
Where they shine so warm and bright, Our M O T H E R lives forevermore In G o d 's eternal light. YOUR LOVING CHILDREN

** ACKNOWLEDGEMENT **
No one knows pain except one who has been afflicted by it. No one knows sorrow, lest he has been caused to grieve by it and there is no heart that can bear those grievances without the warmness shown it by friends.
W e wish you to know that our hearts have been made to feel warm by the kindness, condolences, flowers and all such sympathies shown during the passing o f our beloved mother.
