Mrs. F.A. Gillen Answers Master's Call
   Friday morning, about 3 o'clock, at her home in Bradenton, Florida, Mrs. 
Lillian Moore Gillen, beloved and faithful life companion of former 
Representative and County Solicitor Fred A. Gillen, passed away.  She had been 
in precarious health for several months but her last illness was brief, and 
notwithstanding that everything that skilled physicians and trained hands could 
do for her was anxiously done, she answered the call of the inevitable and went 
to dwell with God and loved ones on the other shore.
   Besides her sorely bereft husband she leaves an infant daughter, three 
brothers, Edgar and Hubert Moore, Bishop; Lester Moore, Bradenton; three 
sisters, Miss Odessa Moore and Mrs. Durden, Atlanta, and a sister living at 
Dublin, and a number of other relatives and just thousands of friends in Oconee 
and Barrow counties, her old home.
   Mrs. Gillens remains werebrought (sic)to Watkinsville, arriving here 
Saturday night over the Central, at nine o'clock, where it rested in the home 
of Mr. And Mrs. Frank Gillen until the hour of the funeral at 3 o'clock Sunday 
afternoon in the local Baptist church, of which the deceased was a loyal 
member, Rev. E.D. Kelly conducting the last sad services, interment following 
in Watkinsville cemetery attended by a great crowd of grief-stricken friends 
and former associates in the old home town.
   With Mrs. Gillen's passing a noble, Christina woman has gone to abide with 
hose gone before and earth is poorer because of her absence, but if her example 
is emulated, one of these days loved ones will meet her again in Beulah-land 
and present-time grief and gloom will vanish before the silver rays of the land 
of hope and beauty and joy will reign supreme throughout that world that knows 
no ending time.
   Our heart's tenderest sympathy is with all those bereft by the going away of 
this good woman.
