Remembering William H. Satterfield
In sad but loving remembrance of my dear husband William H. Satterfield who departed this life three years ago August 26 1926. Oh how sad it is to us never more to hear his call yet to think that he is dead. Rest in peace thy cares are ended. Sweetly sleep thy work is done. Gone is the one I loved so dear. The best are always the first to die. Sadly missed and never to be forgotten by his wife.
