She looks very well.Perhaps you have heard of the death of Owen and Annie Williams. Owen died on the 8th and Annie lived only two weeks and a day longer Their parents and brothers and sisters feel their loss very much They are bereaved indeed, and their home must be lonely, yet they are assured that their loved ones are happy. On the night that Owen died, he said several times, "I am ready" "I am happy." "O, release me" and with his last breath, he said, "I am dying". Annietranscriber's note: Capel is Welsh for Chapel.
