Gone beyond the midst of shadows,

Gone where trials all are over,

Gone on to the Golden Shore.

A precious one from earth is gone,

A voice we loved is stilled,

A place is vacant in the home

Which never can be filled.

May the Great Giver of all good bless and comfort the bereaved family is

Our prayer.

His Son-in-Law

James M. Edwards
