AE 55 years
Precious One from us is Gone
A voice We loved is Stilled
A place is vacant in Our Home
Which never can be Filled
God in His Wisdom has recalled
The Boon his love has given
And Though the Body moulders here
The Soul is Safe in Heaven
Sarah T. Conklin
wife of Elijah M. Bennett

Aged 87 years
Thy Memory Shall Ever be
a Guiding Star to Heaven
