“Signs of the Times” Primitive Baptist Periodical August 1969 Issue

J. S. SORRELLS – Geneva Co., Ala.

	Josephus Sorrells, church Deacon, died suddenly May 25, 1969, after a 
long illness.  The writer had been with him in three glorious communion 
meetings at New Hope, Bethlehem, and Ephesus churches the three previous 
Sundays.  How we enjoyed those services!  He was an able Deacon and had been a 
Primitive Baptist some 50 years.
	He was 78 years of age.  He is survived by his wife, Sister Mae 
Sorrells; 11 daughters:  Sister Ollie Pate, Dollie Harrison, Mollie Holloway, 
Vestie Champion, Annie Bell Mott, Wanda Webb, Tea Butler, Robbie Waters, Tessie 
Campbell, Bettie Petretta, and Aline Butler; and also survived by three 
brothers:  Elder E. R. Sorrells, Frank Sorrells, and Robert L. Sorrells; 33 
grandchildren, and 55 great-grandchildren.
	Funeral services were conducted at Tabernacle Church, Hartford, Ala., 
May 26, 1969, by Elder V. C. Hartzog and the writer, with interment in the 
adjoining cemetery. – J. J. Collins
