Obituary of Vivian Hodges

From 23 August 1905, Clark County (IL) Herald


Vivian, the little daughter of Charles C. and Emma Hodges of
Melrose township, died August 10, 1905.  Her life of two and
one-half years was a benediction to the parents, sisters and
brothers, grandparents, uncles and aunts.  Hers was a bright,
short life of sunshine and joy, and oh!  how hard to live
without her little presence, though transformed from an
earthly life to a heavenly life, from a mortal to an immortal
life, from one of corruption to an incorruptible life, from a
brief life to an endless life.  Take courage, father and
mother, sisters and brothers.  Through our tears we can by
faith see her spotless soul safe with Him who died that she
might live forever.  Her life was brief here, but God has
promised to satisfy her with long life and show her His
salvation.  Memorial services are always sad services, but
with Christian heart and Christian hope and Christian faith
they are not dead, but they are just gone away somewhere in
the great beyond, in the limitless universe of Almighty God.
They live again and by and by their friends shall see them in
the glory of the incarnation.  In the beauty of their
holiness, we shall see them.  A. G. C.
