IN MEMORY OF MYRTLE HURLEYŃ-1953
She's gone a little while but over yonder
She'll be waiting in that home so sweet and fair
Gathered with her loved ones, she will greet us
When we, too, shall go to meet her over there.
If here on earth one's life can merit them,
Her loving deeds and all her faithfulness
Have earned for her a crown to wear in heaven,
Marked with stars for every life she blessed.
Faithful in her busy Christian service,
A friend to all she met who had a need;
Few who touched her life but learned to love her
Because of some unselfish, kindly deed.
The world is richer for her goodly living
And brighter just because she passed this way
For those who loved her, heaven seems much sweeter
Because we hope to meet her there some day.
