Norfolk Journal and Guide,Saturday,Feb 4,1928
The funeral of Mrs. Lelia V. Coaps who died in Detroit, MI, January 11,was held 
at Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church, Monday, January 16. The funeral was largely 
attended and many could not be admitted. Rev. M. Davis, the pastor, conducted 
the funeral assisted by Revs. Cotton, A. J. Nottingham, Midgett and F. Gladney, 
all of whom spoke in glowing terms of the life of the faithful woman. She was a 
devoted member and consecrated worker of this church and her sterling qualities 
and untiring efforts in her work endeared her to the membership and the public 
in general. Mrs. Nellie Stallings sang very beautifully, “It Pays to Serve 
Jesus.” The Allen Bible class of which she was teacher, sang very touchingly “My 
Days Are Gliding Swiftly By.” Mrs. Nottingham presided at the organ and sang 
very beautifully “I’ve Done My Work.” The choir of which she was a leader for 
several years sang some of her favorite selections. Floral tributes were many 
and beautiful. Interment at Calvary Cemetery.
