VIRTUS IUNXIT
MORS NON SEPARABIT
"Whom
Virtue has United Death Shall Not Separate"
"Whom
Virtue has United Death Shall Not Separate"The
Great Creator, having been pleased to remove our brothers
from the cares and troubles of this transitory
existence to a state of endless duration, thus severing
another link from the fraternal chain that binds us
together, may we who survive him be more strongly cemented
in the ties of union and friendship; and during the short
space allotted us here, we may wisely and usefully employ
our time, and, in the reciprocal intercourse of kind and
friendly acts, mutually promote the welfare and happiness
of each other. This page is dedicated in memory of
our deceased brethren.
