TE AMAREMOS POR SIEMPRE MI NEGRO
Se que mi partida a dejado un vacío,
Pueden llenarlo de recuerdos felices
Buenas amistades, risas y todos los
Momentos felices que pasamos
Quizás mi tiempo fue corto;
Te pido no lo alarguen con tristeza y lágrimas
Los amo mucho y siempre estaré con ustedes
Los llevo en mi corazón
Te visitaré con el sol en las mañanas
Te abrazaré con el frío y el calor,
Te besaré con cada gota de lluvia que caiga sobre
ti y
Escucharás mi voz en el silencio cuando te sientas
solo, nunca pienses que me he ido
Porque entonces ya no estaré a tu lado;
Ahora soy libre y seguido el camino
Que Dios marco para mí, escuche su voz,
Tome su mano, deje todo y fui con el
Gracias por acompañar a mis
Seres queridos en este momento de dolor y
aceptación de mi partida.

WE'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER MY
I know my departure has left a void
They can fill it with happy memories
Good friendships, laughter and all the
Happy Moments We Spent
Perhaps my time was short;
I ask you not to prolong it with sadness and tears
I love you so much and I will always be with you
I carry them in my heart
I'll visit you with the sun in the mornings
I'll embrace you with the cold and the heat
I'll kiss you with every drop of rain that falls on
you and
You'll hear my voice in the silence when you feel
lonely, never think I'm gone
Because then I won't be by your side anymore;
Now I'm free and I'm on the road
That God marked for me, listen to his voice,
I took his hand, dropped everything and went with
him
Thank you for accompanying my friends.
Loved ones in this time of grief and acceptance of
my departure.

top of marker is missing, only the base is present
"Mrs. Van Scoy--Jennie E. Thomas was born April 20, 1848, in
Carroll Co., Indiana; was married, Sept. 22d, 1875, to Rev. Thomas Van
Scoy, who was then Principal of the Academy at Brookston, White Co.,
Indiana; and died February 5th, 1884, at Salem, Oregon, of pulmonary
consumption.
When Jennie was five years of age her mother died. Her
father, Mr. Samuel Thomas, having married again, her step-mother after
a few years became an invalid; then the care of the children rested
mostly on Jennie. Nobly did she perform this responsible
duty. Thoroughly truthful in her girlhood, as in all her
subsequent life, ever obedient to her parents, and conscientious in all
things, she had the confidence and affection of the entire family.
When she was thirteen years old they moved to Battle Ground,
Tippicanoe county, that the father might give the children better
educational facilities. There Jennie received an academic
education.
In 1872 the family again moved, this time to Brookston.
In 1875 she went with her husband to Rensselaer, Ind., he having
been appointed pastor at that place. Three hundred persons were
converted during their term on that charge.
When their labors had been completed at Rensselaer, they moved
to Evanston, Ill., where Bro. Van Scoy entered the Garrett Biblical
Institute, he having graduated at the Northwestern Univer-sity, in the
same city, some years previously. The winds from Lake Michigan
affected her health. Her lungs bled several times. At the
conclusion of her husband's course at Evanston, he was invited to
Willamette University, Salem, Oregon, as Prof. of Greek, and accepted
the same with the hope that the climate of the Pacific might bring
health to her again. So indeed it did for two years, but after a
time symptoms of throat and lung trouble reappeared, continued and
gradually increased until the dear Lord took her home.
The domestic circle and the field of her husband's labor,
occupied her thoughts and were her delight. She assisted him in
every work, and was a helpmeet indeed. A little daughter, Lena,
now three years old gladdened their home.
At about fifteen years of age she gave her heart to Christ and
joined the church. Her Christian life never flagged, but quietly
and strongly moved on like the current of an ever-flowing stream.
In a very marked degree she gained the esteem and love of all
who knew her. But very few persons win as many friends as did she.
She was a very quiet and unostentious but faithful and
successful laborer in the vineyard of the Lord. So far as I can
learn she was among the very truest of the true ones in all the
relations, labors, and vicis-situdes of life.
In her last sickness she was confined to her bed about three
months. Although at times she suffered intensely, her sick room
was not a place of gloom. Living questions continued to interest
her. The welfare of her family and other friends; the condition
of the Willamette University, (of which her husband is President) and
each of the pupils; and the state of the church and its members were
matters concerning which she often inquired......." PCA Feb 14, 1884

"Nellie was a Master Chef. She was a cook at a boarding house and a cook
at a restaurant. John Edd tells about her making a large sheet of
raviolis with a spinach filling. He also remembers her standing at the
door with her shotgun, dressed in riding pants and long coat. She went
hunting and always came back with something for dinner. She hunted
jackrabbits, squirrels, pidgeons or whatever she could find and skinned
it for dinner. One time they hit two large turtles on the road with the
car and she took them home and made turtle soup for dinner. She never
wasted anything. John also said that she always gave him a nickel when
she saw him. He could get into the theater to watch a movie for a
nickel, and they gave you a bag of popcorn on the way in. That was in
the 1930's, about 1936 to 1939. They lived up above Klamath Falls in
Pine Ridge, and once or twice a month they would come down to Klamath
Falls where Grandma Allen (Nellie Sherman) worked as a cook for a
restaurant. She lived at the hotel there. She would always ask John how
he was doing in school and give him a nickel. He said she would make big
sheets of raviolis for them, too. She would put cooked ground beef in
with the spinach and seasonings and have the whole counter filled with
raviolis. Grandpa Edd (Rags) was the supervisor at the lumber mill and
when it burned down in 1939, they moved to Chiloquin. In the 1930's, the
hotel she worked at was the Molitares Hotel in Klamath Falls. Also, she
had worked at a logging camp where all the men spoke German. She
learned to speak German there and taught John to count in German when he
was a little boy. Nellie died at the hospital in Salem on Sunday, May
05, 1946 and was buried on Wednesday, May 08, 1946 at the Lee Mission
Cemetery, Section C, Block 52. They held the services there, too. She was hit by a car in San Francisco, California while boarding a trolley and broke her hip. " [provided to findagrave by descendant]

"Accident--Braton Vroom, a boy about twelve years of age, met
with a pain-ful accident at Cedar Camp a few days since by which he
will lose his arm. The facts as near as we can learn are as
follows: He was visiting the Camp with his family for the purpose
of gathering berries and rusticating. One morning he concluded to
go out gunning, and had gone but about two hundred yards when the
report of the gun was heard, accompanied by a scream; he was
immediately carried to the house and upon searching was found to be
wounded in the arm, near the shoulder, the entire charge lodging near
the joint. The arm is terribly mangled and the bone
shattered. It was feared that it would prove fatal. He will
arrive in town this morning, as he was at Silverton last evening." DOS
