      God has called him from us, One, whom we all loved.
      God has beckoned him to come and dwell with him above.
      Although we sadly miss him, we know that he is at rest.
      We can never more see his smiling face or feel his kind embrace.
      But by the Godly life he led, his memory will always
      Be with us, although he is dead. "Blessed are they that die in the Lord" A SON Meyersdale Commercial, Feb 25, 1915
