Mrs. Roxie Randolph, wife of the late Elder J. T. Randolph, was born Feb. 29, 1876, the daughter of A. G. and Jane Williams. She departed this life Sept. 12, 1954, making her stay here on earth more than 78 years. She married J. T. Randolph on Nov. 10, 1892, and to this union 14 children were born – eight of which preceded her in death. Those surviving are: Mrs. Etta Free, Jasper, Ala., Walker Co.; Mrs. Kersey Harris, Jasper; Mrs. Pearl Stephenson, Navvoa, Ala.; James A. Randolph, Jasper; C. J. Randolph, Peoria, Ill.; and Mrs. Moddie Miller, Manchester, Ala. Mrs. Randolph united with the Old School Baptists in the Lost Creek Association in June 1896 and later moved her membership to New Hope Church of the Five Mile Creek Association. She was a faithful member, but for the last four years she was able to attend meetings only a few times. We greatly miss her, but our God knows best. We can only say, Sleep on dear mama, take thy rest. Her funeral was conducted by her beloved pastor, Elder H. C. Moon, and Elder H. M Brock at Baldo, five miles east of Jasper, and she was laid by her husband in a flower-covered grave. There was a large congregation of relatives and friends, and the Elders spoke comforting words to them. The writer was a member with her in the church for 43 years and misses her so much at church and in hearing her sweet voice in the singing. May God ever guide, guard and take care of all of us through life. Written by her daughter. – Etta Free File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/al/walker/obits/r/randolph906ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/alfiles/ File size: 2.2 Kb
