M. Jen nings who departed this life March 19th, 1944. It seems but just a dream As we turn the pages o’er Since you were called to heaven In the year nineteen forty-four. Little did we think, that Xmas ■When you gave your gifts to all, You said it would be the last ones Then we laughed, and now- the tears fall. It seems as if you must have known And there was sorrow in your heart That we didn’t realize, until you had left us, What it -would mean to have you depart From us, and "Oh” we’re lonely For you though we’re trying to smile. We know that is what you would tell us If you could talk to us awhile. We know you’ve earned your Heav enly Home And your work on earth was good. And your life a shining example For the right, you always stood. Sadly missed by Clara B. Jennings and Children.
