Many of the singers. whose voices blended with yours in our choir, have either gone to assist other churches in praising God. or have been promoted to places in the Celes- tial Uhoir where “N0 sighs shall mingle with the songs that warble from immortal tongues.” yet you have looked down Sabbath after Sabbath from your post of seivice. true to the Church, to doty and to God. ‘Ve tender you this Purse, not, as a remuneration but, as a. slight and lov- ing recognition of your work and worth. \Ve realize that we cannot adequate- ly express the gmtitude that fills 0111' hearts as we lecall the servwes you have rendered. \Ve rejoicein the hope that although you are retiring from the leadership of the chu‘u- and the position of organ- ist. we shall still see vou among those who will lead us in the delightful service of God’s Praise.
