When he w as no longer able to work he received much comfort and satisfaction in the n cmory of his accomplishments in the past. His faith in the future is most fit tingly expressed in the beautiful poem by Tennyson: Crossing the Bar. Sunset and Evening Star And one clear call for me! there be no moaning o And seems mav the bar When I put out to sea. But such a tide as moving asleep. Too full for sound and foam. When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns again home. Twilight and evening bell. And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of fare well when I embark, ror tho' from out our bourne of time and place The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar. Card of Thanks The children and grandchildren of the late D. E. Sheesley wish to ex press their sincere thanks to all those who so kindly assisted iiithe funeral services and for the floral tributes and other acts of thought-fulness.
