Obituary of Erminda Mills Boyer

Martinsville (IL) Planet


Erminda, daughter of Rev. S. and Elizabeth Mills, was born in Knox
Co., Indiana on October 10, 1854, died November 18, 1924, aged 70
years, 1 month and 8 days.

On Sept. 12, 1878, she was united in marriage to James Boyer, who
preceded her in death.  To this union was born two daughters, Jessie
and Cora of this vicinity.

She leaves to mourn her departure two daughters, two son-in-laws, four
grandchildren, one sister, four brothers, and a host of friends and
neighbors.

At the age of 12 years, she was converted and joined the U. B. church
at Westfield.  Later she with her husband moved her membership to the
Wesley Chapel M. E. church where she remained a faithful and active
member until death.  About a year ago she was stricken with a dread
disease from which she never recovered.  Although her suffering was
very intese, she bore it with great patience and Christian fortitude
but God has said in his word that our light afflictions that are but
for a moment worketh for his a far exceeding and more eternal weight
of Glory.

She was a loving and devoted mother and a kind neighbor always meeting
you with a smile and a word of cheer and will be greatly missed by all
who knew her but God has called to come up higher and we humbly bow to
his will.
