IN MEMORIAM In memory of my dear husband. Rev. W H Kindell who passed away July 15. 1947. We walked in the shadows and in the light We traveled in vale and the hill In days that were stormy and day* that were bright Together we met the good and th* ill But now I ain walking so strangely alone I hark for a step but in vain But yet the good Father who lovetb his own Will bring us together again You ant not forgotten, however I miss The voice that once gladly I heard The lips that no longer will stop for a kiss Or whisper a comforting word You are not forgotten and still I can smile The blessings we enjoyed th»-n That He who let us so lonely a while Will bring us together agaht. Our love one is absent but can not be far While safe In the bosom of love That h<dd‘ th you also and hope as a star Ih shining so brightly above. Oh faith I’ll be patient whatever the time To wait In the Shadow and Pain while nearer is coming the glory suhline To bring us together again. . Mr*. W. H. Kindell.
