In Loving Memory of Mercy Stowell Hull: In the early morning of a June day, one year ago, while she was still sleeping, her Heavenly Father gently whispered, "Come," and as the day dawned she awoke in Paradise. We picture her now among the flowers in God's beautiful garden with heavenly sunlight glistening in her snowy white hair. While we miss her, oh! so much, we know with her "all's well," and bow our heads in reverence to her dear memory.
She is not dead, this friend,
But in the path we mortals tread
Gone some few trifling steps ahead,
And nearer to the end.
And we, once past the bend,
Shall meet again as face to face
This friend.
Bertha (Mrs. Frank) E. Thompson
