NAME	BIRTH	DEATH	COMMENTS
Beck, John Henry	April 19, 1939	Feb. 12, 1970	"I cannot say, and I will not say That he is dead - he is just away! With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand, He has wandered into an unknown land. And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, Since he lingers there; Think of him still as the same, I say: He is not dead - he is just away!" [see photo]

Midgett, Levene W. Jr.	Dec. 15, 1928	Apr. 13, 1951	Gone, but not forgotten. Passed on beyond our mortal vision, But now the thought is robbed of gloom. Within the Father's many Mansions, Still dwelling in another room. Our darling whose going left us lonely, Is scaling heights undreamed of yore, And guided on by loves unfolding, Has gone upstairs and shut the door. [see photo]  [see obit]
