IN MEMORY
Of little Harold Adams who died
Ovt. 26th 1918. The home is so sad
and lonely without the precious lit
tle one. He was liké a tender little
flower cut down so early with au
tumns chilly blast.
We know separation is hard, but
God knows best. There is one more
angel in Heaven; we know the hearts
of father and mother are sad and
lonely and a place is vacant in their
home; we know Harold’s bright face
and sweet voice will be missed, but
in Heaven’s mansion today he is smil
ing a sweeter smile than in this world
of sorrows and cares. Little Harold
was so jolly and full of life it was
a pleasure to be around him while
at play, but the trials of this life
were too much for this frail little
body of his; He only fell to sleep
sweetly until that blessed morning
when the dead in Christ shall rise.
So loved ones weep not, for some
day we will all meet our loved ones;
they will be there standing at the
pearly gates of Heaven, ready to wel
come us. Little Harold will be there
to welcome father and mother home;
what a happy meeting it will be where
partings will be no more.
