Sleeping Baby Headstone - Oak Hill Cemetery

Time has slowly worn away the details.

Standing above the stone, the scrulpture evoked
a strong maternal feelings in me.

The family plot -- Nellie and Daisy Bostick and their parents,
Mary and George.

Bob and I were searching for a headstone for a findagrave request and found this beautiful child's grave. It is shaped like a casket and has a beautiful inscription on the side.

Our father and mother are gone,
They lay beneath the sod.
Dear parents tho' we miss you much
We know you rest with God.

SAFE IN THE ARMS OF GOD.

A light from our household is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our hearts,
That never can be filled.

her memory. And earth her dust.

Safe in the arms of Jesus
Sweetly thy soul shall rest

I am a volunteer photographer for findagrave.com and have come across so many interesting headstones, monuments and inscriptions and love to share these with others.

Pictures will be uploaded as I discover these treasures.
