Beckham County, OK - Obits: Aria Yandell, 1909 Wednesday, 25 February 2009 Submitted by: delma25@pldi.net (Delma Tindell) ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/copyright.htm ************************************************ YANDELL, ARIA (28 Jan 1909, Thursday, Sayre Standard, Sayre, Beckham Co, OK): DIED - January 26, 1909, the little twin daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Yandell, Aria, sick only a few days. She was taken with a cold, then was a victim of scarlet fever. She was aged 3 years, 3 months and 16 days, and leaves father, mother, two sisters and a brother to mourn her absence. But we thank God that Earth's loss is Heaven's gain. She knew all to the very last and wanted to see Papa, but Papa was not permitted to see her as she departed, and we know that she will not come to see us again. Now we want to thank the good people for their kindness to the bereaved family. We thank God for just such friends and neighbors. May the good Lord bless them in abundance, spiritually and temporally. Rev. A. S. Davis. (11 Feb 1909, Sayre Standard, Sayre, Beckham Co, OK): A. F. Yandell has returned from tour of New Mexico, and admits that the country did not impress him favorably. But, owing to the visit of the Death Angel who took away one of his sweet little girls during his absence, the old home doesn't seem like home to him now. --------------------------------------------------------- Return to Beckham County Archives: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ok/beckham/beckham.htm
