In memory of
Sarah L
wife of Michael L
Sullivant
who departed this life Dec 7 1844
in the 35th year of her age
She was of a sweet and noble nature
Every grace and beauty crowned her
Her walk in life was full of beauty
Deeply pious from life's early morning
With hope undiminished and faith unshaken
She calmly passed away to God
Here are also deposited the remains of six children: Lucas, Sally, Michael, Mary, Magdalen, and an infant
"Upon the reverse side is carved in high relief a beautiful female figure surrounded by six cherubs and under them the words 'Here am I Lord with the children Thou hast given me.'"
