Obituary... Ou August 3rd, 1920 the death -angel visited and taken from the home of Bro. and Sister Lonie Wilson, the only daughter of about six children. Our heartsare made sad when we think of the absence of our loved ones and seethe vacant place that no one can till. We know we can’t call them back to us, but oh! how our hearts do rejoice to know that we can go to them. The gates of heaven that swung open to receive them, in a little while will open wide to welcome us into their presence, where we shall know even as we are known. Blessed be God forever.Dear Bro. and Sister Wilson, weep not for little Bonnie Fay, that was as a bud that budded on earth and is now blooming in glory. Hallelujah.Little Bonnie Fay just lacked a few days being 17 months old in the morning before she died that evening. She called her mauima, reached out her hands for her and when she taken her put her little arms around her.The funeral service was conducted by the writer Aug. 4th.Quietly sleep beloved one,Rest from thy toil, thy work is done.Rest till tho trump from out the sides, Bids thee from dust to glory arise.Arthur Smith, Pastor,Okmulgee Okla.
