IK L0VIX6 MEMORY OF MOTHER
On January 9, 1928, Just at the dawn
ot day, God saw fit to call our dear
mother away. Sarah Louise Ham
was born March 6. 1843. She was the
wile of Jno. W. Ham. who preceded
her to the grave in 1893. They were
givfen ten chUdren tables? tb#r home.
Mama was a faithful wife, and
there never was a more loving and
devoted mother.?Her first thought
was always tor others. In sickness
she wag a devoted friend to those who
needed her help, never counting kei
titne lost when spent in loving str
ydce?foc-others.?it-was- often said
ffiat she Bore everybody's trouble, and
| that sympathetic cord bound her to
the hearts of manv. She was known
las the community mother and frisaC
to all. She alw ays looked "ot). the

Children rise up to cajrher blessed,
buy many feel that words cannot ex.
press her real ti>?e Christian charac
: a? long as.-health would permit her.
I We feel that our dearest friend on
earth has gone, and how-we miss her
words of counsel, yet we want To say
las did David of old, "The Lord giveth,
the Lord taketh, blessed be the name
I of the Lord."
May each- of the seven children,
sixty-one grandchildren, fifty-Seven

[that- her sweet -Christian character |
will be reflected through us. and that
we may let our lives exemplify the
life of Christ Jesus, whom she loved
.and served. In. bo doing we will
honor her and glorify our Lord.
A precious, one from us has gone,"
A voice We loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home.
That never can be filled.
