Born August 11, 1904 Templeton, Iowa
Died May 11, 1977 at home, Manning, Iowa
God saw the road was getting rough,
The hills were hard to climb;
And so He closed his loving eyes
And whispered peace be thine.
The weary days, the hours of pain,
The weary nights are past,
The ever-patient worn out frame
Has found "sweet rest" at last.

May his soul and the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. AMEN.
