        IN MEMORIAM 

In loving memory of my dear husband, Richard Henry Jones, who left one year 
ago, July 24, 1953. 

"Sometimes I feel so sad and lonely, and my heart is sore to think he will 
never return anymore.  But still it is joy to think that some sweet day we 
will meet again to part no more. 

I watched over you the long and lonely days, the dark and sad nights, 'till 
[sic; 'til] God called you home with Him to rest ... in the graveyard ... 
safely sleeping where the flowers gently waves, lies the one I so dearly in 
his cold and lonely grave," where the flowers gently waves, lis the one I 
love so dearly in his cold and lonely grave."  His devoted wife, Lou Jones.
