DEAR MOINA: Somewhere the Sun is shining Thru mists of hazy blue. Somewhere there is no sorrow And hearts are happy and true. And tho beyond our understanding May this set your heart at rest- A loving God knows best. So sorry this is late to remind you more of your sorrow, but although time passes quickly, it somehow can never erase memories of our loved ones. Want you to know my thoughts have been with you. I still have the inspiring letter your father wrote to me when he was in the hospital. You can be sure he is in "His loving care" now. Columbia has lost a dear member.

DEAR MOINA AND RAY: "Near shady wall a rose once grew, Budded and blossomed in God's free light, Watered and fed by morning dew, Shedding its sweetness day and night. "As it grew and blossomed fair and tall, It came to a crevice in the wall, Through which there shone a beam of light. "Onward it crept with added strength, With never a thought of fear or pride; It followed the light through the crevice Length "The light, the dew, the broadening view, Breathing its fragrance more and more. |
