Tribute To
Mrs. A. L. Loyd
In His infinite love God
hath called to her eternal home,
a beloved member of the Wo
man's Society of Christian
Service. Mrs. A. L. Loyd has
gone home to an eternal lov
ing Father.
Her going away brings to an
end a life, well spent and beau
tiful. She was always ready to
i serve her Church and her com
| munity in anyway she could
!as long as health permitted.
Her presence at all meetings
was assured.
Although we feel a great loss
■in the “going away of our
friend,” her memory will con
tinue to inspire us to fulfill our
duties and tasks in a conse
crated effort to emulate her
example.
Now, therefore, be it resolv
ed by the Woman’s Society of
the First Methodist Church of
Covington, Georgia — that in
this formal manner, there be
recorded, our esteem and love
for the Christian life and ex
ample of our “Miss Annie”.
Be it resolved further that
we commend the family to this
blessed assurance of our Lord:
“I am the resurrection and the
life: he that believeth in me.
though he were dead, yet shall
he live.”
That we weep not for her
passing but glory in the in
fluence of her life here with us.
That as her true friends we
strive ever harder to live
more closely to God, following
her example, that we may al!
meet again some day.
Respectfully submitted by
Committee on Resolutions.
