Obituary of Carey Burnett Jr. 
as written in "The Camilla Enterprise" dated 25 Aug 1933.  


Twice in as many days have we been called upon here to pay our last respects to 
the departed of our friends.  First to one, whose life had been long and useful, and by that 
fact had endeared herself to a great host of relatives and friends.  The next, one whose life 
had just begun, and yet had endeared and entwined itself so much around the hearts and 
lives of many, that it' going away was just as hard to bear.  Blighted hopes!  Funeral 
services for Carey, 5 month-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Carey Burnett, whose death 
occurred at their home in Albany Tuesday, 22 Aug 1933, afternoon was held at the 
Baptist church Wednesday, 23 Aug 1933, at 4:00 PM, with Rev J. S. Winn, pastor of 
Byne Memorial church at Albany, in charge of the service, assisted by Rev S. O. Thomas, 
a life-long friend of the family.  "Asleep In Jesus, " and "Little Children," were sweetly 
sung by young ladies from Albany.  A large crowd of out of town relatives and friends 
accompanied the body here.  Interment was in Sale City cemetery. Although this little 
jewel had only been loaned to his parents for a few short months, he had won the love of 
many and his going away is a crushing blow, but of such jewels, is the Master's crown 
adorned, and knowing this, they would not call him back.  Mr. Burnett is the son of Rev 
and Mrs. H. N. Burnett and Mrs. Burnett was Miss Golden Cobb, a former resident of 
Sale City and both graduates of Sale City High School.  The sympathy of the entire 
community goes out to them in their grief.
