F. Macoy, calling their 31-year-old son, William Lee, to rest. "Bill", as he was known to his friends, had won a place in the hearts of all who knew him, by his wonderful personality and character. know his place in the home seems vacant and oh how lonely all the paths his feet have trod. You have paid your last tribute to Bill but as the shadows of gloom hover around you dear parents, wife, brothers, sisters, and friends, remember God in his infinite wisdom saw fit to call from your midst one who was so dear. We know it seems another mystery and only God can reveal the workings of His way, Bill is now in the mansion prepared for him in the home of the blest, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, neither shall there be any more crying nor pain, for God shall wipe all tears away. So while your hearts bleed think of the greatness of God, and the joy in that land where the righteous dwell. Cast all your care upon Jesus who weeps with those that weep and humbly submit, for he careth for you. May the sympathy of friends and the memory of the sweet relationship of this beautiful life help to lighten the load of grief. May God lead each of you ever onward until you meet again, but forget him not, for remember: Gone is the one thou didst, love, your pride, the hope of your life; He shall be waiting for you, And God shall call you from strife.
