They sang, "Have Thine Own Way,' ‘Going Down the Valley," and "Ivory Palaces." The body was carried to its last resting place in the Delphos Cemetery by Frank Kline, Seth Long, C.A. Sullivan, Chas. Klein, Howard Cain, and I.W. Ferris. Roy Hartley directed the funeral.
Dearest Mother, thou has left us;
Left us for the golden shore.
In that heavenly land with Jesus;
There to dwell forever more.
She has left this world of trials,
Left this sad, sad world of woe;
With the sweetest consolation
That she was prepared to go.
Though our home is sad and lonely,
And we see her vacant chair,
We must look in faith to heaven,
Think of mother waiting there.
Mother, are you watching for us?
Then we'll try to meet you there,
In that land that knows no sorrow,
In that land where all is fair.
One by one, God calls us to Him,
Ney it may be you or I;
O, if we are only ready,
Then it won't be hard to die.
