IN MEMORIAM
Because this is Father’s Day
weekend, we, the family. . .of
the late Otis Barnes, who re
member him as husband, father
and grandfather. . .wish to ex
press our thoughts thus:
Early in the morning of March
11, 1957, the gentle spirit of
Mr. Claude Otis Barnes’ quietly
slipped away to his heavenly
home. We do not question God’s
wisdom in calling our loved one
for Ae know our loss is heaven’s
gain. “Blessed are the dead
which die in the Lord, saith the
Spirit, that they may rest from
their labours; and their works
do follow them.” Revelation
14:13.
His smiling face, twinkling
eyes, and gentle hands are no
longer with us. God took him
away, but He left so much for
us. Our hearts and memories
are filled with so much love
and this love will never die.
The Lord knows best and we
must make the best of our lives.
God gave us such a wonderful
father it is only fitting that he
return to God. . .but. . .
We feel such an empty spot
and we loved him such an awful
lot;
The house seems bare with
him no longer there. He was
so good and kind.
He meant so much, and we
miss his touch,
God gave us such a blessing
when He gave us such a wonder
ful father;
It is only in heaven we know
our father is resting.
To those who have fathers
go to see them on this day’
You do not know how much
you care until you see their
vacant chair.

ren, and Great-Grandchild

The passing of more than 50
years since we graduated has in
creased our appreciation of Bob

planned that we may give ex
pression of our appreciation of
them.
