Parents: John Jacob & Alice Rutter Stinson
In Loving Memory of Lawrence E. Stinson
Died Dec. 8, 1888 Aged 7 yrs, 5 mos., 21 days
Asleep in Jesus ! Blessed sleep,
From which none ever wakes to weep !
A calm and undesturbed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.
Asleep in Jesus ! far from thee.
Thy kindred and their graves may be,
But thine is still a blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep.
There is no death ! what seems so is transition,
This life of mortal breadth
Is but a suburb of life elysian,
Whose portal we call death.
