IN MEMORIAM REDMAN -- In loving memory of Roy Redman, who passed away Jan. hth, 1942, Time speeds on, two years have passed, Since death its gloom, its shadows cast Within our home, where all seemed bright, And took from us a shining light. We miss that light;-and ever will His vacant place there Is none can fill, Down here we mourn; but not vain, For again, Sadly missed by wife and family. 1940, I little thought, when you left home You would no more return, You so soon in death would be, And leave me here to mourn. You often said I would miss you, Those words have proved too true, I miss you in a thousand ways As I journey through life alone. --Lovingly remembered by Wife and Daughter HEAYN -- In loving memory of a dear father, Robert Heayn, who pass- ed away, Jdhuary 9th, 1940, Yes, he sleeps, but not forever, In a lone and silent grave; Blessed promise, he shall waken, Jesus died the lost to save.
