The memorial card

From the funeral card

In Loving Remembrance of

Mrs. Augusta Knapp,

Died March 19, 1902.

Age 34 yrs. 10 mos. 10 days.

Gone but not forgotten

We have lost our darling mother,

She has bid us all adieu;

She has gone to live in heaven,

And her person is lost to view.

Oh, that dear one, how we loved her!

Oh, how hard to give her up;

But an angel came down for her

And removed her from our flock.

Copyright 1898 by H. Wendell, Leipsic, O.

Contributor's notes

The contributor writes: "This was among my grandmother's things. She must be a relative, however, I have not been able to track her down as yet. No idea where she lived or died. Looks like her birthdate might be around May 9, 1868."
