      Let your hands be folded, Mother,
      Of toil they have done their share:
      When our lives were young and tender
      How you watched with Love and care.

      We thank the God for such a Mother,
      And the prayers for us she pryaed;
      Great and blessed we shall call her,
      May her precepts be well obeyed.


      Died At her home on the 5th line, Wellesley Twp. on Tuesday, October 11th, 1955 Mary Wagler Beloved Wife of Joseph R. Gerber In her 82nd year.
