My mother was an angel upon the earth. She was a minister of blessing to all human beings within her sphere of action... She had no feelings but of kindness and beneficence, yet her mind was as firm as her temper but yet gentle. Wanda had known sorrow, but her sorrow was silentShe had been thirty-six years the delight of my fathers heart. If there is existence and retribution beyond the grave, my mother is happy. But if virtue alone is happiness below, never was existence upon the earth more blessed than hers.

Love Always,

The Children
