The town and surrounding community express to the bereaved family their heartfelt sympathy. ----- NEWSPAPER Issue of Wednesday, February 28, 1923 RESOLUTIONS ON THE DEATH OF ROY M. HODGE It has been said that next to the radiance that flows from the Great White Throne is the light wrapping itself in the destinies of a beautiful and noble life and at last finding its nesting place with God. This is true of Roy M. Hodge, whose going away on Saturday, January 27th, 1923, brought sorrow to many friends and loved ones. Bro. Roy Hodge was a faithful member of this chapter for three years. Whereas, by his death we have lost one of our devout members whom we sadly miss. Therefore, be it resolved; That we bow in humble submission to the will of Him that doeth all things well; We pray to God that his loved ones may be comforted with the thought that they may meet him again; Be it resolved that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the bereaved family, that a copy be spread upon the minutes of the Lodge and that a copy be sent to The Roanoke Leader for publication.
