IN MEMORIAM
BRAIRTON - In loving memory of our dear mother, Bridget BRAIRTON born in
Nenah, parish of Mount Sea, County Tipperary, Ireland, September 5, 1836;
died in Rochester, N. Y., November 14, 1912.
Oh, guard our affection, nor
e're let it feel the blight
That this world o'er the
warmest will steal;
While the faith of all round us
is fading or past
Let ours, ever green, keep its
bloom to the last.
Far safer for Love 'tis to
wake and to weep,
As he used in his prime, than go
smiling to sleep;
For death on his slumbers, cold death
follows fast,
While the love that is wakeful lives
on to the last.
And though, as Time gathers his clouds o'er
our head,
A shade somewhat darker o'er life they
may spread;
Transparent, at least, be the shadows they cast.
So that Love's softened light may shine
through to the last.
CHAPMAN - In sad but loving memory of our dear Anabelle, who entered into
eternal rest November 16, 1912.
We had a little treasure once,
She was our joy and pride;
We loved her, oh, perhaps too much,
For soon she slept and died.
This lovely bud, so young and fair,
Called home by early doom,
Just came to show how sweet a flower
In paradise would bloom.
Ere sin could harm or fade
Death came with friendly care,
The opening bud to heaven conveyed
And bade it blossom there
Mother, Father, Sister and Brother.
MARKS - In loving memory of Mabel MARKS.
Often we think of our dear girl,
And our hearts are sad with pain,
O, this would be a heaven
Could we hear her voice again.
Just a year ago she left us,
How we miss her loving face!
But she left us to remember
None on earth can take her place
Gently the stars are shining
Down on the silent grave,
Where lies our dear girl sleeping.
The one we loved but could not save.
Mother,
Father and Sister
GERSTNER - In loving memory of my dead mother, Mrs. Paulina GERSTNER, who
was called away from us November 14, 1912.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in thy grave so low;
Thou no more will join our number;
Thou no more our sorrows know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fled,
And in heaven with joy to greet thee,
Where no farewell tears are shed.
Daughter
ABERT - In sad but loving memory of our dear father, Philip J. ABERT, who
entered into rest Saturday, November 16, 1912.
Often we think of our dear
father,
And our hearts are sad with
pain,
O, this would be a heaven
Could we hear the voice again,
Just a year ago he left us,
__ we miss his loving face
But he left us o remember
None on earth can take his place,
Gentle the stars are shining
Down on the silent grave
Where __ our dear father sleeps
The one we loved, but could not save.
