MacKAY—In loving memory of Mrs.
Hector MacKay who passed away
May 15th, 1943.
They are not gone—these loved ones
whom we mourn,
We must not think of them as far
away;
Unto a fuller life have they been horn,
Laying aside the vesture of this clay,
Yet near us still they watch and love,
and know;
We are the blind ones who no longer
see,
Beloved form that softly come and go,
Waiting reunion in Eternity.
Ever remembered by, Mr. and Mrs.
J. J. Coflin and family.
