STEPHEN THROWER STORY – Montgomery Co., Ala.

	Stephen Thrower Story died at St. Jude’s Hospital, Montgomery, Ala., on 
Feb. 23, 1955.  He was born in Montgomery on Mar. 24, 1901, making his stay on 
earth nearly 54 years.

Tears and joys today are blended:
Tears for loss, and joys for gain.
Thrower’s stay on earth has ended – 
God has called him from his pain.

Vain the tribute we would tender;
Words of ours can ne’er express,
Nor the flowers that loved ones sent him,
All he was of loveliness.

Proud we are that God has loaned him,
Though it seems so short a while;
Proud to think that we have owned him,
And have seen his blessed smile.

Anywhere we ever found him – 
Seemed like sunshine from above – 
Spreading sunshine all around him,
Blending happiness with love.

Thanks to God who gave him to us,
As we lay him ‘neath the flowers;
Such a gift was never due us,
As that Thrower dear of ours.

Mrs. M. C. Story, Ramer, Alabama
