Mary Della Washburn - Glens Falls Cemetery - Glens Falls, New York, USA - Doves of peace on Waymarking.com

This concrete grave marker hosts a pair of doves of peace in a community cemetery in Glens Falls, New York. The marker consists of a formation of rocks upon a square base with an inscribed script down the front. A dove of peace is perched on the top of the marker, head pointed downward with a wreath in its beak. A second dove is at the right-hand bottom of the script facing upward with wings outstretched. The marker has sustained some erosion over time and is loosing some of its definition but is still legible and the inscription reads:

Mary Della
Daughter of Noah & Ann
WASHBURN
DIED MAY 23, 1871
AGE 12 YRS 2 MS

Sweet child is hard to give thee up
Oh could we pass the bitter cup
Oh could we yield our darling one
And yet respond Gods will be done
