Tribute
On Wednesday night, Mav
29, 1963, Mr. D. L. Floyd of
Covington, Route 1, “crossed
over the bar’’ to dwell in his
heavenly home. He was a na
tive of Anniston, Alabama, the
son of Mr. D. S. Floyd and Mrs.
Annie Ramey Floyd. Mr. Floyd
was born November 23, 1890.
i His parents moved to Newton
County from Anniston when
he was a child.
He joined the Salem Metho
dist Church when a young man.
He had been in very ill health
for several months. He was re
signed to God’s will and gave
evidence of his readiness for
His call. His loved ones are
comforted in the assurance that
death, for him was a glad home
going.
Many were his deeds of love
and sympathy to the sick and
afflicted. His cheery smile and
pleasant words of greeting will
be missed. He loved God’s
J word, which was a light unto
1 his pathway. He was a good
and humble Christian, a very
kind and affectionate husband
and father.
He was married to Miss
Maud Evans of the Rocky
Plains community on August
27, 1911. To this union, seven
sons and three daughters were
born. One died quite young and
Oliver died in the Pacific Area
September 24, 1943 in World
War 11. Before entering the
war, he was in Berry College
He was an ordained Baptist
minister.
In 1961, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd
celebrated their 50th Wedding
Anniversary.
We commend them to the
loving Saviour, who said, “Let
not your heart be troubled; ye
believe in God, believe also in
Me.’” “The Lord gave and the
Lord hath taketh away; blessed
be the name of the Lord”. We
extend our deepest sympathy to
the family and loved ones.
Mr. Floyd is survived by his
wife; five sons, Elmer Floyd.
Harold Floyd, Covington; Roy
Lee Floyd, Curtis Floyd, At
lanta; Robert Floyd. Marietta;
i three daughters, Mrs. Howard
। Cook, Mrs. Henry Boozer. Cov
ington; Mrs. Luther Philips,
Atlanta: sister. Mrs. John Gor
j man, Atlanta: 26 grandchildren
and four great grandchildren.
Funeral services were con
ducted Friday. May 31st at 4:00
p. m. at the Church of Our
i Lord Jesus Christ. Bishop J. T.
Payne and Rev. Billy Harper
officiated. Interment was in
Lawnwood Memorial Park.
A life-saving suggestion:
Have a life preserver for
1 everyone on board your boat.
Those who can’t swim should
always put on a life jacket be
-1 fore the boat leaves the dock. 1
