He leaves to mourn this loss, father, mother, one sister, three brothers, grandparents, uncles and aunts besides other relatives and friends. Little Raymond was very ill for two weeks and has gone to that land of sunshine and song where the inhabitances never say, "I am sick." May God comfort these who today are called to mourn and may they seek beyond this vale of tears to him who hath said, Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven. THE LAST SLEEP Neath winters snow and summers bloom, Our dear one sleeps beneath the bloom, and who' we call, they answer not Who rest here in this hallowed spot. The friends we know in youth fair hours, Where every pain was bright with flowers The friends we know and trusted well. Who heed not well the Chapel Bell Tho' long the years to us so long To them - but as a passing son The while they wish - his voice to hear. Who bright with Glory shall appear. And bid them from God's acre rise. And join his Angels in the skys. Then let us weep not - well we know, Bow soon we too - shall slumber so and when we rise to worlds unknown Shall meet and greet them as our own. And join the chorus as they sing Hosanna to our Lord and King.
