Sister Minish had been a faithful and consecrated child of God since she was about 14 years old, when she was received into the Apple Valley Baptist church, and was baptized by Rev. W. S. McCarty. She was a devoted sister, obedient daughter, and a woman of the noblest type, being ever faithful to her Christian duty. While it is sad to part with our loved ones, we would not bring them back to this world of trouble it we had that power, but we can prepare to meet them again in heaven. Earth can not be man;s only abiding place. We are born for a higher and more glorious destiny. We read of a wonderful city, where no cloud or shadow can intervene. Those who gain an entrance to this city shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more, neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat, for the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them. And lead them to living fountains of water, and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. The redeemed of the Lord shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. Whereas, Our beloved sister has taken up her abode in her heavenly home, in accordance with the will of our all wise and omnipotent Creator. Therefore, Resolved First, That in her departure from us we have lost a faithful and consecrated member, but we feel that our loss is heaven's gain, and that our sister has joined that grand eternal church above. Second, That we deeply sympathize with the bereaved family, and that they have our most earnest prayers. Third, That these resolutions be spread on the church record, sent to the family of the deceased and sent to the county paper for publication. Elizabeth Nix, Chairman, M.E. Benton D.L.
