In Memoriam
In memory of our mother, Mrs.
Bettie Inscoe, who died one month
ago Sept. 30, 1936.
How often our thoughts wander
To that grave not far away,
Where they laid our dear mother,
Just one month ago today.
We miss thy kind and willing hand
Thy kind and loving care.
Our home is dark without thee—
We miss thee everywhere.
Upright and faithful in all her
ways—
A beautiful character to the end of
her days;
A loving mother, good and kind—
What a beautiful memory she left
behind.
A loving daughter,
Mrs. Lucy Nicholson,
Roanoke Rapids, N. C.
