In loving remembrance of Lydia Steele
In loving remembrance of my dear sister Lydia Steele who was called away three years ago on March 20 1942. Three lonely years have passed since you were called away. Since that sad day I miss you and feel guided by your hand. Though trials are hard your prayer eases the burden. Sadly missed by Brother.
