Obituary of: Edmond Bolden EDMONDSON

Funeral services were held at the Pleasant Valley Methodist Church on 
Monday afternoon, October 11, for Mr. Edmond Bolden Edmondson, of Good 
Hope, who was one of Walton County's most popular citizens. The well 
known gentleman passed away at his home on Saturday, October 9, after a 
serious illness of about three weeks, Revs. J.L. Drake of Monroe First 
Baptist Church, Auston Turner of the Social Circle Baptist Church, and 
A.E. Caldwell were the officiating ministers. The Masonic Order to which 
Mr. Edmondson belonged had charge of the burial rites in the nearby 
cemetery. 

The esteemed gentleman was born in Walton County on September 19, 1871 
and was the son of one of this section's most prominent families. He 
spent most of his life in Walton County acquiring a wide circle of 
friends and admirers. He was a loyal member of the Bethel Baptist Church 
and for a number of years he was affiliated with the Pleasant Valley 
Methodist Church. He was known throughout the County for his high 
standards of Christian ideals as well as an outstanding Civic Leader. 

Mr. Edmondson is survived by three children, Roy and Willis Edmondson of 
Monroe, and Mrs. Albert Sorrells of Social Circle, one brother, Mr. Will 
Edmondson, of Good Hope, one sister Mrs. Dave Stephens, of Atlanta, and 
several nieces and nephews. To the bereaved members of the family, as 
well as the countless friends of the deceased, the Tribune extends 
deepest heartfelt sympathy.
