Rose-Neath Funeral Home Marshall St. Chapel-222-0348 IN MEMORIAM In Loving Memory Of Pat Payne Houston Born: May 8, 1933 Died: August 21, 1976 DEAR LORD: You sent the angels, for our Pat, Much sooner than Life's Span. But we must say "Thy will be done," and try hard to understand, You didn't promise she would stay.

Since all from earth return, and the lesson taught from your Book down here, This child of yours did learn. She gladdened many hearts with her charms. And tho' her stay was brief, We have her lovely memories, As solace for our grief. Although her soul is now at rest and free from care and pain, we're selfish Lord, we would be happier to have her back again. Still, we must say "Thy will be done," for, her soul is with the blist.

And tho' we grieve for her today, We know you loved her best. Sadly missed by her Family and Friends. Eatery fight lands 1 man in jail, 2nd in hospital By VICTORIA L.
