In Memoriam
In Remembrance of our daughter Laura who passed away just one year ago June 2.
Sudden was the call,
Great was the loss.
She is still remembered
By all who knew her
Her work here on earth is ended.
Her race below is run.
So let her work praise her
In the heavenly gate.
In comforts our heart to know
She is in food care
Mr. and Mrs. Chris Johansen and family.

Other passengers in the light truck operated by Robert Cole of Woodhull Road were Emma, 15 years old, and Albert, 12 years old, sister and brother to the dead girl.
