MRS. K. O. STRAND DEAD
In Memory of Mrs. K. O. Strand
Gone from her home, a mother so
dear,
We are sad, our hearts ache, today,
She was kind, gentle, loving, sincere.
Could she speak to us, she would say,
I have slipped away to the homeland,
To my mansion, wondrous, fair:
Rejoice with me then in my gladness,
Remember, I've left every care.
We wish to extend our heartfelt thanks for all acts of kindness; and the beautiful floral offerings; to the choir, to Rev. Langehough for his comforting words and to all who assisted us in any way, during the illness and after the death of our husband, father and brother.
Mrs. Nels Shelde and Daughter
Mrs. Johnson
