In Memoriam--In sad, but loving remembrance of our darling son, Russell,who died one year ago today on March 22. We had a little treasure once,He was our joy and pride; We loved him, ah, perhaps too well, For soon heslept and died. We did not want to part with him, But God knew what wasbest; Some day we hope to meet again, In that sweet land of rest. All isdark within our dwelling, Lonely are our hearts today; For the one weloved so dearly, Has forever passed away. Gone but not forgotten. By his parents, Mr. & Mrs. Wm. D. Gobrecht |
