She leaves a husband and four children to mourn their loss, besides her numerous friends. She was a tender loving mother and a true faithful wife. Oh, what is home without a mother. Asleep in Jesus! blessed sleep. From which none ever wakes to weep; A calm and undisturbed repose, Unbroken by the host of foes. Asleep in Jesus! far from thee Thy kindred and their graves may be; But thine is still a blessed sleep, From which none ever wakes to weep. Written by one who loves her dearly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by Jenna Zunker USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free genealogical information on the Internet, data may be freely used for personal research and by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
