October again is here, To us the saddest of the year, ‘Twas on the 31st day God called our dear father away. Thou art gone but not forgotten; Thy chair is still vacant, Thy voice we no longer hear, ? But they memory will always linger near. Our home was once a heaven to us, ‘Twas happy as happy could be; But oh, so soon a dark cloud appeared And claimed our father with the dead. Dear is the grave where our father is laid, Sweet is the memory which will nev er fade. Roses may wither, grass may die, Others may forget, dear father, but never I. Farewell, you have left us, Deft the ones you loved so well, But some day we hope to meet you, Where together we shall dwell. Gone but not forgotten—Wife and children.
