Dear
Friends and Schoolmates,
There is more sad if somewhat belated news today. Gertrude
Wilson,
mother of
Lowell Philbeck ('59) of VA, passed away in Newport
News on
Tuesday, September 02, 2014.
She was for many years the proprietor of the
Little Perm Beauty Shop.
From Jean Poole Burton ('64) of
RI - 09/07/14, 6:16 PM - "Death of Gertrude Wilson":
Mother of
Lowell Philbeck. It was in Friday's Daily Press. She was a very special
friend to our family.
Thank you so much, Jean. When I first read this obituary, I thought that you
yourself must certainly have known Mrs. Wilson, but I missed the
NNHS connection. You have my deepest sympathies on
the loss of your dear friend.

Oh, How I Love Jesus
Words by Frederick Whitfield;
Traditional American Melody
There is a name I love to hear,
I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in my ear,
The sweetest name on earth.
chorus:
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Because He first loved me!
It tells me of a Saviour's love,
Who died to set me free;
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner's perfect plea.
(chorus)
It tells me what my Father hath,
In store for every day,
And tho' I tread a darksome path,
Yields sunshine all the way.
(chorus)
It tells of One whose loving heart
Can feel my deepest woe,
Who in each sorrow bears a part,
That none can bear below.
(chorus)
