SPILLMAN, Alva

On the morning of Sep 13th the death angel visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. 
Wylie Spillman and claimed for its victim their son, Alva, age 19 years. He was 
a good boy, respected by all and to lose him truly brings a deep and heavy 
shadow, but the light sometime will break through and there will be a glad and 
happy reunion in the great beyond. He was the second son to be called by death 
from this home within 7 months. It is indeed a great sorrow to the parents, 
sisters and brothers. Big Sandy News, Sep 21, 1923

 

About 2 o’clock on the morning of Sep 13, 1923 death entered the home of J. W. 
Spillman and took from them their beloved son, Alvia. He was born Sep 12, 1903. 
He was a kind and affectionate son and brother and always wore a smile had had a 
kind word for all he met. Alvia was sick about 7 weeks with appendicitis. He 
bore his suffering without a murmur and often told his parents that he was so 
???some that he didn’t want to get well, that he wanted to go to his brother 
Willard who had preceded him to the glory land only 7 months ago. Big Sandy 
News, Sep 28, 1923
