THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, AUGUST M, 1978
IN MEMORIAM
Os Ronald Bass, who passed
away so suddenly August 20,
1969:
It seems just a short span of
time,
When you were a curly hair
ed boy of mine.
So full of life, happy and
carefree,
Thinking nothing would ever
happen to thee,
But it was just a year ago
today
When news came, son, you
had been taken away.
Shocked, stunned and staring
out into space.
Thinking and wondering why
I couldn’t have taken your
place.
We know we are not to ques
tion the things
God allows to happen in our
lives.
Even in time of sorrow it can
deepen our faith
And point us to the skies.
Memories of you are treasures
no one can steal.
Death is a heartache only
God can heal.
Some may have forgotten you
now you are gone,
I shall remember you no
I matter how long.
I The .call was so sudden and
shock severe,
|To part with you seemed so
hard to bear.
But one day the things that
seemed so hard to face
Will be unveiled in Heaven,
that wonderful place.
So until my Master calls me
from the sky,
Memories of you will linger,
son, where there are no
good-byes.
Mother, Vergie Bass.
