On December 16. 1938, in the home of VV ayne and Rozella Hunter, a tiny rose bud came in the form of Judith Ann, to brighten the lives of those about her. But for only a few short days, and God transplanted this little flower in his garden, filled with rare blossoms.
There is a garden forever blooming. With roses so fair, Such splendor, so fragrant, For Jesus is ever there.
In her departure, on December 31, 1938, she leaves her father and mother. four grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Luther Hunter, and Mr. and Mrs. Roy Terry, two uncles, Dennis and Carl Terry, and one aunt, Fern Terry, and other relatives and friends.
She was but a jewel lent us. To sparkle In our midst, awhile,
God called and took His treasure. Before she knew no earthly guile.
Somewhere our little rose
blooming,
In the garden with Jesus she’ll
dwell,
Cease then thy sad repining, Judith Ann lives—and all is well.
