IN MEMOIRIAM JJON'E‘Sâ€"In loving memory of our dear mother, Mrs. Peter Jones, who departed this life April 13th, 1939. What is home Without a mother, What are all the joys we meet Where her smile no longer greets The coming of our feet. She was true and very patient Through those years she travelled on, Those dear hands now resting Made a homeâ€"now is gone. To those that have a mother, Gherish her with care; There will never be another To fill her vacant chair. You oft times said we’d miss you, Those words have proved too true; We lost our best, our dearest friend Dear mother when we lost you.
