Obituary of George Henry GOINS, Hardin County, Illinois Contributed for use in the USGenWeb Archives Copyright 1999 Wanda Reed Name of Deceased: George Henry GOINS Name of Newspaper: Hardin County Independent Date of Newspaper: 11 October 1928 Obituary: George Henry Goins was the son of James and Sarah Goins and was born Sept. 19, 1899; departed this life Sept. 11, 1928 being 28 years 11 mo. and 24 days. He was a good, honest hard working man and had friends wherever he went; to know George was to love him. Some day we will understand why God calls one so young when life is sweet and full of promise. All that medical skill and loving hands could do was done but God saw fit to call him home. He leaves behind a father, three brothers, three sisters and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his loss. His mother preceded him in death one year 5 months and 18 days. Weep not dear father, George is not dead but sleepeth. Prepare to meet him. He can't come to us, but we can go to him. After a short sermon by D. J. Cixon, the remains were laid by the side of his mother in Stone Church cemetery to await the judgement days. ------------------------------------------------------------------ USGENWEB NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by other organiza- tions or persons.
