Our Hearts Are Crushed By the Loss of Our Dear Little Girl, Ellen, Oct. 17, 1919

From The Hertford County Herald, Ahoskie, N.C., Friday, Oct. 17, 1919

Ellen B. Simons

Our hearts are crushed and our home made sad by the passing away of our dear little girl, Ellen B. Simons, on September 26, 1919.

The angels took thy spirit safely to the other side. She said she wanted to be a little sunbeam, but a bright little angel in Heaven just two weeks ago, tonight, God called our darling home, to live with Him on High, where they never say good bye.

How we miss you Ellen, darling, Nights seem long and days so drear; mother wants you precious darling. She misses you everywhere.

You have left us sad and lonely;
No one can fill your place,
The long nights will soon be over,
Then we hope to see your face.
I can see you, dearest darling,
There among the angels’ band,
Beckoning us to come up higher
Holding out her snowy hand.

Mother and Father
