CARDS ST THANKS CARD OF THANKS I want to thank my friends and neighbors for their cards and flowers during my stay in the

hospital. It was greatly appreciated. Fred Harlan IN MEMORY In memory of Thomas L. Ganshorn, who passed away two years ago, July 10. “I’ll lend you for a little time a child of mine,” He said, “For you to love the while be. lives, and mourn for when he’s dead. It may be for six or seven years, or twenty-two or-three; But will you, till I call him back, take care of him for Me? He’ll ’ bring his charms to gladden you; and should his stay be brief, you’ll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief. “I cannot promise he will stay since all from earth return. But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn. I’ve looked the wide world * over, in my search for teachers true. , / And for the throngs that crowd life’s lanes I have selected you. i “Now will you give him all your love nor think the labor vain. Nor hate Me when I come to call, to take him back again?” I fancied that 1 heard them say "Dear Lord. Thy will be done. For all the joy Thy child will bring the risk of grief we ll run.” “We'll shelter him with tenderness. we ll love him while we may And for the happiness we have krfowrt forever grateful stay; But shall the angels call him much sooner than we’ve planned. We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try’ to understand.” Max, Mary and Ginger Ganshom Brian and Angela Ganshorn Brad and Carole Betswanger IN MEMORIAM In Loving Memory of Floyd M. Rensberger who passed away two years ago today, July 10, 1969 May you always walk in Sunshine. God’s love around you glow. For the happiness you brought us. No one will ever know. It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone. Part of us went with you. The day God called you home. So'Sadly Missed by all who
