IN MEMORIAM
In Memory of our beloved
son and brother, C. M. Ellis,
who passed away December
23, 1960.
A precious one from us is
gone
A voice we loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in our
home,
That never can be filled.
God knew that he was suff
ering
And the hills were hard to
climb
So he closed his weary eye
lids
And whispered “Peace Be
Thine”.
Sadly missed by
Mother, Father,
Sisters and Brother
