While the passing away of this dear daughter, sister and wife saddened our hearts, let us remember that "sorrow is not the master of joy." There is much to be thankful for. The splendid Christian character which she developed during her brief span of life was beautiful to behold. She measured up to all that was best in life. Through her life there was a current of love, of duty and sacrifice that made her a model Christian and friend in whom a large circle trusted. The very large crowd assembled to witness the last sad rites, the floral offerings, which covered her beautiful casket in ...., evinced the high esteem in which she was held by the entire community. It is sad to part with those we so dearly in life, but it is sweet to know that God is always near to comfort and sustain us. "Fear thou not; for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness." The pall bearers were Fred and William Gray, Clyde and Welle Bradley, Willie Uhlenbock and Loyd Thomas. Deceased leaves a devoted husband, father, mother, three sisters, two brothers, relatives and a host of friends to mourn their loss. DUNDAS, Bessie L. SLAPPER 1888 - 1982 Windsor, MO - Bessie L.
