MEMORIAL
In memory of my dear sister,
Mrs. Bessie Thurston Brooks, who
departed this life February 2nd,
1971 at 12:45 p. m.
“Just the word ‘Sweetness’ in
connection with death.” Asa
nurse who has seen so many peo
ple expire through the years, I
know it is often sweet to die. Fre
quently I have seen a change of
expression as the moment of
death approached—-almost a smile.
It was a blessing for our loved
one to leave us. There are many
things worse than death. We
should have better faith in the
goodness and mercy of God. Only
God can know all the facts. Death
is not the end it is really the be
ginning of life. Jesus has said,
“Thou shalt be with me in Para
dise.” (John 23:43)
My sister didn’t care for ma
terial things but she loved God
and her family. As Jesus said of
one woman to another, “Leave
her a'one, she has done what she
could.”
Thanks sincerely to each of
you for remembering my family
and me at this time of sorrow.
Respectfully,
