MERL ADAMS DIED
SUDDENLY LTHURSDAY

"God gave.
He took, He will restore,
A precious one from us has gone,
He doeth all things well:
A voice we loved is still.
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love had given!
And though the body slumbers now.
The soul is safe in Heaven."
