Not how did she die, but how did she live? Not what did she gain, but what did she give?
These are the units to measure the worth Of a woman as a woman, regardless of birth. Not, what was her church, nor what was her creed? But had she befriended those really in need? Was she ever ready, with words o f good cheer,
To bring back a smile, to banish a tear? Not what did the sketch in the newspaper say, But how many were sorry when she passed away.
The family of Tia K. Jordan wishes to express our sincere thanks for the flowers and other expressions of love during our time of bereavement.
