In Memory of Father and Mother Dickinson
In memory of our father L. A. Dickinson who passed away April 18, 1945. Your memory will never grow old. The pain was hard and the shock severe. It will be four years June 5, 1946 since our mother Emma Dickinson passed away. She had a smile for every one. A heart as pure as gold. To those who knew and loved her best. Sleep on and take thy rest. We loved you, but God loved you best. Sadly missed my family.
