The Cairo Messenger, Friday, February 4, 1916
Little Virginia Crawford Passes Away

A Shadow of gloom was cast over the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Crawford when 
God saw fit to send the Angel of Death to take into His goodly company the 
little two-year old daughter, Virginia, who quietly passed away at four o'clock 
Wednesday morning after two weeks of patient suffering. 

It is sad to give up a cheerful, hopeful life of a darling little baby, 
however, we cannot help but look upward to the Creator who gives as well as 
takes the lives of His children for strength to bear sorrow nobly. We find much 
comfort when we look back on the beautiful life that has been taken away, and 
with the assurance that has been given us from above, we know that little 
Virginia has been carried only to a brighter and fairer land. She leaves behind 
many loved ones, as well as her playmates, to mourn her loss. 

The funeral was held from the residence, attended by a large concourse of 
relatives and friends. The services were conducted by Rev. J. T. Ryder assisted 
by Rev. W. C. Jones. The pall bearers were Messrs. J. M. Poulk, J. E. Forsyth, 
W. L. Wight and Thomas Wight. 

May God breathe peace and cheerful resignation into the hearts of the grief 
stricken family at this time and we hope that in Him they may find much to 
sustain and comfort them. "Friends."
