ETHEL MAY DAVIS LEE June 23, 1901 1968 Happy Birthday in Heaven. We miss you much and love you so much, but God loved you best. Your Daughter, Childs, REMEMBERING HENRY CLYDE Working outside this morning brought back many memories of you. Your love of gardening, beautiful flowers and people. Remember how we looked all over town for watermelon plants that you wanted to set out? But, you were too weak so I planted them.

How about our rides together to see people or to eat at Jimmies, one of our favorite eating places. The day Stephen Fish gave you a surprise retirement party brought a smile to your face! remember how happy and thrilled you were the day Pastor Whitsitt baptized you. Friends and. family watched with love and happiness as your sick and weak body became filled with joy! Of course, I was there too, a smile on my face and love in my heart. "The LORD is my SHEPHERD," rang from your mouth as asked the Pastor to immerse you in water again and again.

That day the LORD became your SHEPHERD. Remember the day you were declared HOMETOWN HERO. You ALWAYS gave your best, you really loved people. You taught me to love all people. One beautiful, sunny, breezy day in June the Lord took you home.

The wind seemed to be saying, "He's at peace now!" Pastor Whitsitt said "God picked a rose this How right he was, a beautiful, black rose with a heart of gold! We all love and miss you, but know that you are in a better place, no more pain, only peace. thank God everyday for how you touched my life. Gone but never away. Your Loving Wife, Dorletha Clyde ROBERT HEIDORN Happy Birthday in Heaven. think and miss you.
