The memorial card
From the funeral card
In Loving Remembrance of
Ira M. Clapper,
Died Jan. 1, 1902.
Age 32 yrs. 15 days.
Gone but not forgotten
He has gone from his dear ones, his children, his wife,
Whom he willingly toiled for, and loved as his life.
O God! how mysterious and how strange are thy ways,
To take from us this loved one in the best of his days
