Memorial to Kristine (Nielsen) Petersen, wife of J.M. Petersen. Died 18 Nov 1894, 59 years old.

You matured and rested in the Lord,
Your staff you have laid down;
Ask him, whose Spirit to which you hasten,
where there is eternal Joy, Peace.
O, Saintly Delight to meet there
And view him, the Lord Christ.

Here shall farewell to him be sounded,
Who safely with her wandered here;
By the end of the road you may enjoy
That Joy to live with her there.
Where never you shall be separated again
Where eternally joined you will be.

PEACE TO YOUR DUST
