          In affectionate memory of
          MY DARLING HUSBAND
        HENRY POWELL BLOOMER
   BORN IN MANCHESTER JUNE 10 1899
             DIED OCTOBER 10 1937
                                 *
        A LOVING SON AND BROTHER
    A DEVOTED HUSBAND, AND A FRIEND
                                  *
THOSE SWEET AND GENTLE NATURES  WHO
                                                                      COME LIKE ANGELS
 OF GOD TO EARTH AND THEN PASS AWAY BEFORE
    THEIR WORK SEEMS
HALF DONE HAVE NOT LIVED IN VAIN
                                  *
THOU HAST CALLED ME TO RESIGN
WHAT MOST I PRIZED
IT NEVER WAS MINE;
I ONLY YIELD THEE WHAT IS THINE
THY WILL BE DONE
