I SURE ENJOYED VISITING WITH YOU AND CARL. HE WAS MY FAVORITE COUSIN. JAMES
ALWAYS CARRIED THIS POEM IN HIS WALLET.

ONE OR THE OTHER

ONE OR THE OTHER MUST LEAVE,
ONE OR THE OTHER MUST STAY.
ONE OR THE OTHER MUST GRIEVE,
THAT IS FOREVER THE WAY.
THAT IS THE VOW THAT WAS SWORN,
FAITHFUL 'TIL DEATH DUE US PART.
BRAVING WHAT HAD TO BE BORNE,
HIDING THE ACHE IN THE HEART.
ONE,HOWSOEVER ADORED,
FIRST MUST BE SUMMONED AWAY.
THIS IS THE WILL OF THE LORD
ONE OR THE OTHER MUST STAY.
