About 36 years ago, Mrs. Glasgow united with the Christian Church. About 8 years ago she united with the M.E. church at Troy. Mrs. Glasgow was a good woman, a faithful helpmate and loving mother. She was never complaining but was always cheerful and kind. In the church where she loved to work she was a very devoted and faithful member, always willingly doing her part. Her pastor knew her as a faithful Christian. She showed to others a beautiful loving Christian character. Thus we might say with the redeemed: "There shall be no maor pain or sorrow for God shall wipe away all tears," we will not call our loved one back to pain and suffering but rather we will live until God says "come" and we will all be united to part no more.
