From the fireside and the feast
There are faces that have vanished
There are voices that have ceased;

From our mortal grief and pain
And we thank Thee, O our Father,
For the blessings that remain.

Collection of
Mary Eva Betts Christman
Once again the Grim Reaper of
Death has entered our midst and taken from us our beloved wife, mother,
daughter, sister and friend.
Wanda Lee Cain, daughter of
Raymond and Lela Betts Christman, was born July 16, 1933, near Calais
in Monroe County, Ohio,
and died May 14, 1973 in Barnesville Hospital, Barnesville,
Ohio, being at the time of her
death 39 years, nine months and 28 days of age.
She was united in marriage with
Glenn Cain July 14, 1953. To this union were born five children: Debra Joan,
Larry Alen, Bradley Dean, Beverly Sue and Sheryl Lynn, all of the home. Besides
her husband and parents, she is survived by one brother, Richard Christman, and
one sister, Mrs. Danny (Kay) Watson, both of Barnesville; several nieces and
nephews and a host of relatives and friends. Two brothers, Ralph Donald and
Charles Frederick, preceded their sister in death.
Mrs. Cain was a faithful member
of the South Main street
Church of Christ
of Bethesda, and a member of the Chestnut Twig
of the Barnesville
Hospital.
All that loving hands and medical
skill could do was done, but of no avail, and God called her home with Him
where there is no sorrow or suffering.
She was a loving wife, mother,
daughter, sister and friend; always mindful in the needs of others and always
willing to lend a helping hand wherever needed and add a ray of sunshine to
make someone s life brighter.
Mrs. Cain will be sadly missed by
everyone.
A precious one from us has gone;
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.

Thursday, May 17 at the Kelly-Kemp Funeral Home in Bethesda by the Reverend Robert Jones and the

Clem Christman
Source: Unknown
I met Clem Christman about nineteen years
ago. It was harvest time and he was coming in from the fields on his tractor
when we were introduced. He had a friendly smile and his handshake was firm and
sure, with meaning and sincerity.
In the years that were to follow I visited
his "place" out on Skin Creek road, or Monroefield many times. He
liked to visit and chat, and I enjoyed talking to him.
"Pap" was what his children and
grandchildren called him, and as time went on I called him "Pap" too. He was a friendly outgoing person.
As I sat in attendance at his funeral the
other day many things he had told me passed in my mind and it all seemed to
make sense. I had given him material things in our friendship, but it was Clem
in "his own way", without being argumentative or forceful who had really
given something to me, and at the time I did not realize what value his words
of wisdom and advice really meant until now.
The first few times we visited him I
always thought that up the road and over the hill west of his house the world
surely ended so to speak, that there could be nothing beyond the top of that
hill! Well, one day I walked up the road
and over the hill, and sure enough the road went on, and the world did not end
there! Clem would always laugh when I told him this.
At the funeral I saw his friends and
neighbors come to pay their last respects. I saw in these faces the same
sincerity and kindness that I had come to know was a part of Clem.
Young and old, hard working people who
knew what friendship and respect really is.
And I thought that if anyone really wanted to know what made our Country
great they should come and know these people. Unspoken words between them, yet
bound together and God loving. And then
I thought this was the very thing Clem had been trying get me to understand in
the few short years I had known him. That is why this was "his" home
and he loved it!
I visited the Calais cemetery with him once and I realized
now Clem had known that someday he would be resting there.
As we stood there in that cold November
wind Sunday, I knew something else Clem had felt. Just as the world did not end
beyond the hill west of his "place", and after this cold windy day, a
summer time was coming. These same trees now with golden leaves would be green
again. The wild flowers would bloom in the spring, the sun would warm the
ground, and the birds would sing again. His many friends and neighbors whose
presence this day were a testimony to his life would remember him! This was
what he had always been trying to tell me! There was something beyond this day!
There was a coming of springtime, a new time, and a new day! This was not the
end, but a beginning! Clem believed it! His memory will live on for me!

At Sunset
Do you know the hour when the sun
Goes down
is a beautiful time of day?
When your task is done and the shadows Fall and your worries are laid away?
Well, it s just as true that the

Every task well done, let the shadows fall There s no fear of eternity.
