Cairo Messenger, September 12, 1919
In Loving Memory of Mrs. Martha Parramore

On Monday night between the hours of eleven and twelve o'clock, the Grim Reaper 
of death visited the home of Mrs. J. E. McMillian and took our dear mother.  
She had been in declining health for several months and her death, although it 
was not unexpected, was a sad blow to her children.

Before her marriage she was Miss Martha Clark, and a member of one of the 
oldest and highly esteemed families of Thomas county.  She lived to a ripe old 
age, being in her seventy-second year.  Her husband preceded her to the grave 
about 20 years ago.

Mrs. Parramore leaves a large family circle and a host of friends to mourn her 
passing away.  Her children are: Messrs. R. W., A. S. and O. J. Parramore, Mrs. 
R. M. Davis and Mrs. J. E. McMillian of Thomas county and Mrs. T. S. Copeland, 
Mrs. J. W. Asbell, and Mrs. Bertha Bryant of Grady county.   

She was a member of the Baptist church and for many years lived in its faith, a 
faith in which death claimed her.  She was a kind and loving mother, always 
ready to comfort everybody she came in contact with, a fact which her passing 
away causes grief and sorrow to warm friends.

On Tuesday, just as the golden sun was setting, she was tenderly laid to rest 
in the Fredonia cemetery, the last sad rites being performed by Rev. Harvey 
Wages, her pastor. It can be truthly said that she has gone to the reward which 
is so deservedly hers.

"Weep not, dear children, meet me on that bright and shining shore, where we 
meet to part no more."
