Davis, Lyle W. (5 JAN 1913 - 2 MAR 1913)

(First name and birth date were taken from Yolo Cemetery listing)

The Angel of Death cast its gloom over the Wellie Davis home Sunday morning at 8 o’clock and took from them their infant baby of about 2 months of age.  The little one had been sick only 4 days with the whooping cough.  It is hard for the sorrowing parents to part with their little visitors at such an early date, but the gift of God for the little one is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.  The funeral was held Wednesday at 10 o’clock and interment was made in the Fremont Cemetery.  The sorrowing parents have the sympathy of the entire community.

We had a little treasure once,

  He was our joy and pride.

We loved him, oh! Perhaps too well,

  For soon he slept and died.

All is dark within our dwelling,

  Lonely are our hearts today.

For the one we loved so dearly

  Has forever passed away.
