© The Verden News Verden, Oklahoma July 14, 1911 June 21, 1910 ~ July 6, 1911 "With a sunny smile and a wave of the hand, she has wandered into that 'Unknown Land' And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be since she lingers there, Think of her then as alive, I pray, She is not dead - she is just away." Like a bright little sunbeam Dorothea Louise came into the lives of Mr and Mrs Fred Hill on June 21, 1910. On July 6, 1911 the sweet spirit went home to its Father in Heaven. In many ways little Dorothea was an unusual child. She was possessed of almost an angelic disposition and endeared herself to all those around her. Even during her illness she had that sweet patience that made her nurses love her even more dearly than before. On Saturday July 8 the funeral was held from the home and was conducted by Rev Robert Thompson. By the side of the tiny white casket in which slept the dainty form of the baby, stood a group of little girls taken from Mrs Hill's class in the Sunday school at Dutton, with eyes full of tears for they all loved the baby, they sang "Beautiful Little Hands." A quartet composed of Mrs C. C. Childs, Miss Alma Mankoff, Miss Motter and Mr Wilbur Garret sang a number of sweet songs. Mr Garrett then sang "He Knows It All." Four little girls gowned in white, Relia Brewer, Rose Wamsley, Lena Hurst and Esther Handke carried the casket. She was laid to rest in the cemetery at Verden. Though her little life on earth was brief she fulfilled her mission we do not doubt. Rev. Thompson spoke comforting words to the heartbroken parents whose only child had gone out of their lives, and to the dear Grandma Guthrie who was almost prostrated by the death of her little pet - Dorothea Louise being the first child born in the uthrie family for thirty years. We can truthfully say that the family has the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community |
