AWTRY – Tuscaloosa Co., Ala., Jefferson Co., Ala. Brother Jack L. Awtry was the son of Brother and Sister J. A. Awtry (Sanders). He was born Sept. 22, 1888, in Tuscaloosa Co., Ala., and departed this life Nov. 14, 1967. He married Nanette Brundige of Searcy, Ark. She died some years ago. Brother Awtry joined Mt. Zion Primitive Baptist Church near Birmingham, Ala., on the fourth Sunday in December 1964 and was very faithful and a devoted member until his death. He loved the doctrine of salvation by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, which was all his hope. Although he was a member for only about two years, yet he was known far and wide over the South and will be missed by all his brethren. He is survived by three brothers – Herbert A. of Birmingham, George N. of Salt Lake City, Utah, and Henry B. of Cleveland, Ala.; four sisters – Mrs. Florence Pate, Mrs. Effie Cowart, and Mrs. Ella Shoemaker, all of Birmingham, and Mrs. Myrtle Foster of Hattiesburg, Miss.; and many other relatives and a host of friends. Brother Awtry’s funeral was conducted by his pastor, Elder H. C. Moon, and by the writer and was held at the Primitive Baptist church. Graveside services were by Elder W. D. Griffin and Elder R. W. Rhodes at the Zion church near Gordo, Ala. Written by the request of the family. – Elder Claude Hand File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/al/tuscaloosa/obits/a/awtry897ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/alfiles/ File size: 2.0 Kb
