EDITH LAWRENCE "LOU" CAROON

   Mrs. Lou Caroon peacefully passed away on February 23, 1918, at her home 
here. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. L. F. Paulette Sunday 
afternoon. The pallbearers were W. T. Smith, S. R. Simmons, M. E. Barrett, W. E. 
Myrick, J. G. Barnes, J. B. Everett, L. P. Simmons and C. R. Everett.

   She leaves to mourn their loss a daughter, Miss Sallie Caroon, and two sons, 
J. E. and G. T. Caroon, who had watched so patiently at her bedside until silent 
death entered the sick room and laid its hand upon the breathing form and the 
spirit took its flight over the river to the other shore where sorrow and pain 
are no more, where eternal ife is the reward for God’s own, as they await their 
loved ones.

   May the Heavenly Father sustain the beloved ones in this time of sorrow, 
feeling that the parting may be an inspiration to work closer with Him, "who 
doeth all things well", and that our deeds may not be measured by earthly 
remembrances, but, by the life of eternity in Heaven where our beloved one 
remains in the midst of heavenly bliss with angels at her side and with peace 
and joy the soul’s only thought.
