"The death of William Henry Parsons at Brookside, the residence of Milo H. Parsons, his son, took place April 5, 1898. After a brief week of mourning, his aged wife, Mariette Parsons, followed him to the silent land. Not often is so long and happy a reunion broken to be so quickly restored. Through the vicissitudes of nearly sixty years, they trod the path of life together, rejoicing in the brightness, and comforting and sustaining each other when trials and sorrows were their lot. Lovely and pleasant in their lives, in death they were not divided."
