The Norfolk Virginian, May 07, 1897


Sterling-At the residence of parents, No. 209 Brown Avenue, Brambleton Ward, 
May 6th at 3:45 p.m., Mary Addison, infant daughter of J.C. and Jessie C. 
Sterling, aged 4 months and 7days. 
The funeral will take place from the residence this (Friday) afternoon at 4:30 
p.m. Friends and acquaintances respectfully invited to attend.
Our lovely bud, so young and fair, 
Called hence by early doom,
Just came to show how sweet flowers
In Paradise would bloom.
Ere sin could harm or sorrow fade? 
Death came with friendly care, 
The opening bud to heaven conveyed,
And bade it blossom there.
