Lineville Headlight
Mrs. F. M. Croley died at her home near Delta on Thursday, August 31st, after an 
illness of over three months, and her remains were laid to rest in the Good Hope 
cemetery Friday, September 1st.  At the time of her death the deceased was about 
49 years of age. She was a member of the Baptist church, was, a Christian and 
true to every relation of life. Our community in her death suffers an 
irreparable loss. She was an example of a moral, clean Christian, battling at 
all times for justice and right. We shall greatly miss her in our homes and in 
the community. Her friends were many and she will be sorely missed by all who 
knew her. She is survived by a husband, two children, her mother, Mrs. Knight, 
and sister, Mrs. Yates, both of Daviston, and many other relatives. Dear 
children, let us mane life pleasant, as did your mother, and soon you shall meet 
her in a brighter home where there comes no sorrow or pain, but will ever be at 
rest in Jesus. A Friend.

On August 21st at 10:18 o'clock the Death Angel entered the home of Mr. F. G. 
Croley and bore away in his strong grasp the loving wife and mother of the home. 
Mrs. Croley was ill almost five months, and after friends and physicians had 
done all in their power to restore her health, she passed joyously into that 
home not made with hands, where there will be no more sorrow or suffering. And 
as we bow in humble submission to the will of Him who doeth all things well, we 
should not weep, for our loss is her eternal gain. Though mother's place in the 
home can never be filled, and you will miss her gentle guidance down the path of 
life, rejoice in the fact that she died in the full glory of a risen Redeemer, 
and that to her death was only a dream. Mrs. Croley was indeed a sweet woman, 
kind and affectionate to all, and none knew her but to love her. Many tears were 
shed as friends and relatives stopped for one last caress or one parting kiss 
ere her from was borne away. The funeral services were conducted by Rev, W. B. 
Jones, of Pyriton, at Good Hope Church, near Delta; and many were the friends 
who gathered at the church to pay her their last tribute of respect. The 
deceased survived by her mother, sister, husband and two children. May God's 
richest blessings rest upon those who mourn for her, is the sincere wish of the 
writer. Her Niece.
