Springs Valley Herald (August 26, 1937) A Tribute
With the dawning of each new day of our lives we take a "Forward Look" of hope and expectancy into the unknown future.
Today, we have been called upon to take a "Backward Look" over the life of a companion, mother, neighbor, friend; one whose life here has ceased, but whose influence lingers on.
The silver cord of life of Etta Newton Claxton, wife of Edward K. Claxton, which was held with such tender care, has slipped from out our fingers, to live anew in another realm.
We are left with only the treasured memories of her, and these with the unspoken tributes, are life rays of light amid the shadows.
Mrs. Claxton was reserved in her life, her home being her throne, and the welfare of her family her chief concern. Her mother live was copiously poured out for her children.
She never sought publicity, or attention for herself, but rendered service for the love of others, even as, with joy the stars perform their shining.
She has a fine appreciation of the beautiful in everything. Her inborn talent for art was evident everywhere throughout her home and her handiwork adorned every nook and cranny.
She was most generous-hearted, always sharing with others, thereby exemplifying the truth that "It is more blessed to give than to receive."
The years of this companion and mother were too few as we would think, but we know we must bow to the will of Him who knows what is best for her who is gone, as well as for us who are left.
May all her admonitions be remembered and kept, knowing that ere long it will be our happy privilege to see the face again "which we loved long since and lost awhile." Kate P. Claxton.

CARD OF THANKS

We wish to express our thanks and appreciation for the kindness of our friends during the recent illness and death of our wife and mother. We are deeply grateful for the support which these acts of sympathy gave us during the days of illness and hour of bereavement. E. L. Claxton and Children. Submitted byTom Agan.
