      IN LOVING MEMORY OF
      ROYD E. WHEDON
      MARCH 6, 1973
      O Gentlest Heart of Jesus ever present in the Blessed Sacrament ever consumed with burning love for the poor captive souls in Purgatory have mercy on the soul of Thy departed servant. Be not severe in Thy Judgement, but let some drops of Thy Precious Blood fall upon the devouring flames and do Thou O merciful Saviour send Thy angels to conduct Thy departed servant to a place of refreshment, light and peace. Amen.
      May the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.

      I'm told Uncle Royd suffered two heart attacks before he had his fatal attack while at work. Uncle Royd worked for the Mars M&M company in Hackettstown, New Jersey.
