Precious father, he has left us,
Left us, yes, forever more,
But we hope to meet our loved one
On that bright and happy shore.
Lonely the house, and sad the hours,
Since our dear one has gone.
But Oh! A brighter home than ours
In Heaven is now his own.
Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 2:30 in the South Marion Church, preceded by a prayer service in the Hanson Funeral Home at 2:05 o'clock. The Rev. Maurice Gunn officiated at the services. Songs for the services were: "In the Garden," and "The Old Rugged Cross," sang by Mrs. Charles Magnuson, Mrs. Robert Magnuson, Mrs. Severt Crim and Mrs. Halbert Crim, accompanied by Mrs. Vincel Crim at the organ.
