OBITUARY
Mary Audrey Rose Armstrong, deceased, age forty-six years, two months and twenty-two days, was born and reared in Sullivan, Indiana, May 4th 1887. She was married to William N. Armstrong at Sullivan, Indiana, June 5, 1914. To this union two children were born, Louise and Helen.
She with her family, came to Alamo, Colorado, some ten years ago, in early childhood, she made a profession of her faith in Christ and united with the Methodist Church.
She was a tender Mother, a loving companion, and an affectionate sister, loved and held in the very greatest esteem to all who know her. Her faithful service of love and unselfish devotion to her family, her church, and to her community was boundless.
"Her life was fairer than the morning Lily,
When the eyes of Heaven wet his leaves;
Unstained and pure"
Like the Precious Jeweled Saints of old, she walked with God, and today is not; for on the evening of July 26, 1933, from the family residence at Alamo, just after twilight, while the evening shows were singing a weary world to rest, her gentle spirit sudden as the lightning flash, quick as the sun-beam glimmer, took its flight to be at Home with God.
She leaves a husband, two children, a mother, one sister, two brothers and many friends who long for the touch of a vanished hand, for the voice that is hushed and still.
May the God of all Comfort sustain every aching heart!

CROSSING THE BAR, By Alfred Tennyson:

Sunset and evening star
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning
of the bar
When I put you to sea.

But such a tide as moving
seems asleep.
Too full for sound or foam,
When that which drew from
out the boundless deep
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness
of farewell
When I embark.

For though from out our borne
of time and place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my pilot face to
face
When I have crossed the bar.
