In the midst of life’s plans and activities comes death. We realize that this is certainly true and yet, more forcibly than ever when brought home to us in the departure of loved ones and dear friends, we recall the sweet memories of past associations as if they were only yesterday, yet they are gone forever here on earth. We believe “that God doeth all things well,” and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.
Our hearts are human and ache, yet the Holy Sprit comes to comfort us, and God’s grace and mercy abound to us.
A host of friends grieve the departure of lost loved ones.
Mrs. Carrie Carter, sister of Mr. Columbus Simmons, died this year.
Mrs. Maggie Balance of Lake Landing, age 62, died early in February.
Mr. John Mydyette of Gull Rock died, aged 51 years.
Other deaths recently: Mr. S.L. Fisher, Mrs. Eula M. Spencer and Mr. Ed Mann. The latter died suddenly in Florida at the ripe age of 75 years. He was brother to Mr. T.C. Mann. Mr. Mann was buried Sunday, Feb. 14, in the family cemetery at Mr. Richard Mann’s.
