In Memoriam
In sad but loving remembrance of
our dear wife and mother, Mrs. Re
beca Poulson, who left us six years;
ago, October 26, 1931.
The wheel of time has brought again, j
The day that fills our hearts with
pain,
It was six years ago today,
That our wife and mother was taken
away.
Her smiling way and pleasant face,
Are a pleasure to recall,
She had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.
Some day we know not when,
We’ll clasp her hand in the better
land,
Never to part again.
Sadly missed by,
husband, J. A. Poulson,
and son, Stanley L. Poulson.
