Till we are called to follow you, and in the grave to sleep. Time may heal the broken-hearted, time may make the wound less sore; but time will never stop the longing for the loved one gone before. Heavy are our hearts today, memory brings you back once more, to the time when you were with us, to the happy days of yore. Gone is the face we loved so dear, silent is the voice we loved to hear; too far away for sight or speech, but not too far for thought to reach, sweet to remember you who once was here, and who, though absent, is just as dear.
