Resolutions of Respect

In memory of Sister Mary Jones who was called to her eternal home, Feb. 6, 1897

She was baptized by Rev. Jacob Buffington in to Bethel church about twenty 
years ago. In July 1884 she put her letter in at New Hope. We believe she was a 
conscientious, zealous Christian member. We feel that in the death of Sister 
Jones that our church has lost a faithful member, her husband a devoted wife, 
her children an affectionate mother, and her neighbors a loving and 
sympathizing friend. She leaves a husband and five children to mourn her loss.

Whereas, our Heavenly Father in his infinite wisdom has seen fit to call Sister 
Jones to her eternal home, therefore be it

Resolved 1. That we bow in humble submission to God’s will believing our dear 
departed sister has but passed over the river and is now enjoying the blessing 
of God’s eternal home.

Resolved 2. That while we deeply sympathize with the bereaved family in their 
loss, may be strive to emulate her Christian example, that we may meet her in 
the beautiful home beyond.

Resolved 3. That these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of our church 
book, a copy be sent to the family of the deceased and to the Pike County 
Journal for publication.
