Clearfield Progress 31 Mar 1959, pg 10
In loving memory of our dear Brother, Husband and Father, Edward Duke.
Four lonely years have passed away since our great sorrow fell.
The shock we received that night we still remember well.
Midnight stars are gleaming on a lonely grave where he's sleeping but not dreaming.
He's the one we could not save.
He little thought when leaving home that night that he would not return.
And in his death so soon would sleep and leave us here to mourn.
We did not know the pain he bore although we did not see him die
The saddest part of all we could not say "Good-bye"
God gave us courage to face the shock and strength to face the blow
But what it means to miss him God will only know.
Some may think we have forgotten when they see us smile
But little know the heartaches that lie hidden all the while
Sad and lonely are the hearts of those who loved him best.
Sisters, Brothers, Wife and Children.
