OBITUARY: Mahulda Berry, 29 Aug 1885 - Smith County, TX Submitted by Vicki Betts 1 January 2003 Copyright.

She was converted and joined the Methodist Church in her thirteenth year, in which church she lived a very devoted and useful member until Aug. 29, 1885, when she left this poor world for a brighter one. I knew Sister Berry for a long time; was her pastor for three years. She suffered much in her last years; but I have seen her shouting happy often. Her sufferings are over, and doubtless praises God on high. She leaves several children and grandchildren, but most of them, I think, are on the way to heaven. Go on and meet her there. C. H. Smith.
