Harmon was born August 30, 1851 and departed this life April 18, 1919. She was united to Mr. L.M. Harmon, by Rev. Rhodes in Holy Matrimony November 6, 1873 and to their union was only one daughter, Miss Ruhanna Harmon. Mrs. Harmon professed a hope in Christ and united with the Missionary Baptist Church at Mt. Pisgah in early childhood and has been a faithful member since that time but on account of her health and her daughter’s health she has not been able to attend the services for some time. Mrs. Harmon was kind and affectionate wife and mother and accommodating neighbor, ever ready to help in the time of need. Not only her husband and daughter will miss her, but a host of friends who were numbered by her acquaintance will shed a tear over her departure. We will not meet her on this earth again but by the grace of God we hope to meet her in the New Jerusalem. Oh! how we sympathize with her bereaved ones, but would say to them, Bear up and remember, “The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away; blessed be His name.” “Be of good cheer it is I.” May the God of love be with her companion and give him grace to be reconciled to all his dealings with us so when we have run the race set before us we may hear that good and welcome plaudit, “Well done thou good and faithful servant enter thou into the joys of they Lord.” There will be no sad farewell in that happy home where she is dwelling for all is peace and love. Our heart goes out in sympathy to the loved ones, but we feel that we should not grieve for she is resting from all her suffering and troubles. She is happy, so happy resting in the arms of a glorified and risen Savior. She leaves behind her husband and daughter, one brother, Rev. John Locke, and a large host of friends to mourn her loss. Her body was peacefully laid to rest in the Mt. Pisgah cemetery. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. M.T. Gaultney. Written by Mrs. L.D.
