In sad and loving memory of
our beloved wife, daughter, sis

who passed away one sad year
ago today, April 26, 1923.
The shock was great, the blow
severe;

tell
The pain of parting not
saying farewell.
Just one sad year ago today,
Some one we loved was called
away;
We shall never forget her, nor
do we intend,
We think for her daily and will
till the end.
