She was a kind and loving wife and mother, her husband did not seek happiness in public places because he found purer and sweeter enjoyment at home.
Her children when away longed to return, for there was no place to them so dear as home. There was a darling mother thinking of them, praying for therm and longing for their coming.
When in trouble they remembered her kind voice and ready sympathy.
She toiled; she suffered disappointments and bereavements; yet she was submissive and cheerful through all. The Lords will concerning her was her will also, and so she passed away leaving this sweet remembrance behind her.
She always made her home happy"
"Asleep in Jesus blessed sleep
From which none ever wake to weep
A calm and undisturbed repose
Unbroken by the last of foes."
---The neighbors.
