She was born > 1895, joined the Congregational Methodist Mount Olive Church, August > 20th, 1905, where she lived in love and fellowship until God summoned her > to that home not made with hands. Death is sad under all circumstances, > but unusually sad in the going away of this loved one as there was no > one to witness her death but her two little ones, too young to realize. > Carrie was a dutiful girl in her childhood and on August 30th., just as > she was blooming into beautiful womanhood, she was married to Grady Meeks > with whom she lived for three years as a loving and true wife. She was a > devoted Mother to her children. Death as a mighty cycle came > and reaped her down in her beautiful and happy life; but the blessed hope > which her loved ones have is that she is only gon! e to bloom in the > immortal world of an eternal life where sickness, sorrow and death come > no more. > The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J.E. Barron and her remains > interred in Shiloh Cemetery. > May the Grace of God comfort her dear husband, parents, four sisters > and two children is the prayer of one who knew and loved her noble and > good life.
