(Cedartown Standard, September 4, 1902) 
On August 23rd, the death angel visited our community and cast a shadow on the 
home of Mrs. Nanny Weaver in the death of her mother, Mrs. Madry. For years her 
home has been with her daughter, Mrs. Weaver, and how heroically and 
pathetically she strove to help and comfort her widowed daughter in her 
mother’s struggle to support and train her children. Never did she cease her 
personal efforts in directing and guiding her grandchildren to that most 
priceless of treasurer, a noble Christian manhood and womanhood. None more 
modest and reserved in all the walks of life, she made no parade of life, or 
her Christian experience, but lived nobly by the still waters; was respected 
and loved by all who knew her. Her body has served its purpose, and having been 
a little chastised, shall be greatly rewarded, for God proved her and found her 
worthy for himself. Her spirit has passed into a large life and a divine 
service in the kingdom of Heaven. Her memory will be kept fresh and sweet by 
devoted hearts, while she dwells in the Eternal Home, and awaits the coming of 
loved ones left behind. May the God of all grace comfort the bereaved family, 
and enable them to join her at last in the bright home of the redeemed, may 
they draw near God’s great throne, and so live that when their summons comes 
they, too, may lie down to as pleasant dreams. Peace, peace! She is not dead 
she does not sleep! She hath awakened from the dream of life, she has 
outscoared the shadows of our night. (A Friend) (Cedartown Standard, September
