In Remembrance of ---
Marion Derickson Pickering, who passed away one year ago today, Oct 31, 1939:
We pause from our many cares of the day,
In memory of you who were called away,
To a land that is fairer, yet we wished you to stay.
And although the years cannot erase
The memory of those cheery words, your smiling face,
We will keep striving, with you as our guide,
To make ourselves worthy of a place by your side.
