Doub of Barr officiating. Interment was made in the Enid cemetery. Pall bearers were her grand sons. You cannot say, you must not say That she is dead, she is just away! With a cheery smile and a wave of hand She has wandered into an unknown land, And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, since she is there; So thinking of her faring on, as dear In love of there as the love of here; Think of her as still the same, and say She is not dead?she is just away! Card of Thanks We wish to extend our heartfelt thanks for the many deed of kindness and the many comforting words of friends and neighbors, to the singers for the selection of songs and to Rev. D. L. Doub. May God's richest blessings rest on all who were so kind. ?Mr. R. W. Hale, Mrs. J. B. Frost, Miss Grace Hale, Mr. D. E. Hale, Mrs. Flossie Barkley, and C. C. Hale.
