Dearest Lucille

You have left us and your face we will see no more, but we hope to meet again on the bright and golden shore where these is no death, there is no night. The loved one passed beyond our sght [sic] is living in eternal light.

Removed from care and pain and some day in a fairer land we shall hear the voice and touch the hand and with lifted voice which understands. We shall see our loved again.
