Personal Note- This is the obituary of Ara A. Buffington Buffington (Mrs. Obourn Delong "Buddy" Buffington). She was the daughter of William Berrian "Billy" Buffington and Amanda Marcellus "Marcie" Pool, all of Hall County, Georgia.
The phrase on her tombstone says:

you bade no one a last
farewell A last goodbye
you could not say"
