OBITUARIES
NANCY ]. FENDER PHIPPS

Nancy j. Fender Phipps was born
February 23rd, 1866, and departed
this life on March 7th, 1886, at the
age of 70 years and IL days.
She was married to J. F. Phipps
on March 10th 1909, and lived hap
PLY in this union for rs years, II
month, and Is days.
Mr. and Mrs. Phipps joined the
Healing Springs Baptist Church on
Saturday, July 26th, 1924, and were
baptised into the fellowship of said
church the following Sunday by
Rev. j. o. Spencer.
Sister Phipps was a beloved and
devout companion to her husband.
She was industrious and labored
hard in aiding her husband in bull
ding a beautiful and commodious
home where she loved to entertain
her friends. She was a woman of
model character "a kind and oblig-
ing neighbor ready at any and all
times to lend a helping hand to
those in need.
Jesus said: "By their fruits We
shall know them," and so from the
Christian life of this sister, we fully
believe that she is safe in heaven
enjoying the pleasures as stated by
st. Paul: Eye hath not seen, nor
ear heard, neither have entered into
the heart of man the things which
God hath prepared for them that
love him..
She will be missed by those who
knew her, and her place in the home
can never be filled but let us be
submissive to the will of him who
doeth all things well.
She leaves a sorrowing husband,
three brothers, two sisters, and a
host of relatives and friends to
mourn their loss.
