The pathway of the just is a shining light that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. This is a tender hour, but in no way an hour of tragedy. There is something utterly appropriate about the going home of this one who has lived a happy and useful life. Wlfoo has put so much of goodness, kindness, love, and service? JM others and loyalty to God into her years.

She was a noble wife and mother Loved by all she knew
Everyone she tried to help And smiled the whole day through
She served and loved her Master And tried His will to do
Was always helping others A life so noble, kind and true
We shall miss her bright smile And all her loving ways
But well try to live for Jesus And meet her at the end of our days.
