Lake Odessa Wave-Times September 23, 1921

                            OBITUARY
Beulah, baby daughter of Mr and Mrs George Dewey Brooks, whose twin preceded her 
to its heavenly home Sept.11, was born in Odessa township Oct. !2, 1920 and 
departs this life at her home here Sept 19, 1921, aged 11 months and 7 days. She 
leaves to mourn their loss besides her father and mother, one sister Eileen, one 
great-grandfather, two grandfathers and two grandmothers besides a host of 
relatives and friends. The funeral was h eld in Cavalry United Brethren Church, 
Rev. V.H. Beardsley officiating. Burial was made in Lake Side cemetery.

Over the river the boatman pale
Carried another, the household pet,
Her brown curls waved in the gentle gale
Darling Beulah! I see her yet,
She crossed on her bosom her dimpled hands.
And fearlessly entered the phantom bark
And all our sunshine grew strangely dark.
We know she is safe on the further side
Where all the ransomed and angels are,
Over the river the mystic river
Our baby is watching and waiting there.

                               CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our heartfelt thanks to the kind neighbors and friends for 
their kindness and sympathy shown us in the death and burial of our darling babe 
the minister for his comforting words and beautiful floral offerings.
                           Mr and Mrs Dewey Brooks
                           Mr and Mrs Frank Bippley and family,
                           Mr and Mrs Wm. Brooks and family.
