IN MEMORIAM
MRS. NINA BUTLER
In loving memory of our dear mother, grandmother and great grandmother, MRS. NINA BUTLER, who left us 12 years ago,
March 1. 1949.
There is an empty place within our hearts
That never can be filled
Since on that day 12 years ago
When your sweet lips were stilled.
But patiently we carry on,
And always in prayer
We ask the Savior up above
To let us meet you there.
Boyd, Lawrence, Jasper, Jerome Butler, sons.
Katherine Butler Strozier, daughter.
Grandchildren and great grandchildren.
