they have since resided.

The deceased leaves to mourn her loss a sad husband, two sons, an aged
mother, five sisters and one brother.

We miss thee from our home, dear mother,
We miss thee from thy place.
A shadow o'er our life is cast
We miss the sunshine of thy face.

We miss thy kind and willing hand,
Thy fond and earnest gaze,
Our home is dark without thee,
We miss thee everywhere.
