NEWSPAPER Issue of Thursday, FEBRUARY 25, 1932

IN MEMORY OF MRS. CARRIE EVANS CHAMBERS

The subject of this sketch, Mrs. Carrie Evans Chambers, was born in Gwinnett 
county, Ga., on July 19, 1862. She was married to John B. Chambers on Jan. 
25, 1891. She lived happily with her husband til the year 1904, when he died 
and left her a widow with three small children to rear. God fulfilled his 
promise to her and was a "husband to the widow." She was enabled by the 
grace of God to bring up her children to maturity in honor and credit in a 
christian way.

In her girlhood she united with the Methodist Episcopal church and lived a 
consecrated christian life til the time of her death.

Her life was one of inspiration to all with whom she came in contact. It was 
a life of gentleness, patience, faith and love. Her life was one in which 
you could see the life of Jesus reflected, for she walked in His ways.

Now, another home is broken and hearts are made inexpressibly sad, but they 
know where she is and have the assurance that they can go to her and meet 
her again in the "land beyond the river."

She died on the 2nd day of February 1932 and was gently laid to rest in the 
cemetery at Bethel, near Hartselle, Ala. to await the resurrection morn. She 
leaves behind her three children, Mrs. L.B .Norton of Somerville, Ala.; Mrs. 
W.L. Groover of Hartsella, Ala.; and R.T. Chambers of Chavies, Ala.; three 
grandchildren of Somerville, Ala. and a host of relatives and friends in 
Cleburne and Calhoun counties, Alabama.

Dear christian Mother, your work is done, your crown is won and you are safe 
with the Lord whom you loved. Farewell, to you, till Jesus comes again and 
all HIs saints will rise to meet the Lord. Then, we shall see you again. A 
Baptist pastor and former neighbor, G.B. Boman, Bowdon, Ga.
