IN MEMORUM
Mrs. W. B. (Exa) Harvey
Our hearts were saddened in
the Rocky Plains Community and
the Hopewell Presbyterian
Church, Covington, by the passing
of Mrs. W. B. (Exa) Harvey,
whose death occurred on Friday
morning, September 3, following
several months Illness. She was
71 years old. She was born and
reared in the Hopewell
Community, the daughter of the
late Mr. and Mrs. W. A. (Lena)
Gardner. On December 25, 1910
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. (Lena) Gar
dner. On December 25, 1910
she was married to the late
William Boyce Harvey. To this
union were' born five sons and
four daughters.
In early life she united with
the Hopewell A. R. Presbyterian
Church and remained a loyal
and devoted member until death.
She manifested her loyalty by her
regular attendance at all ser
vices. She loved the women’s
work and held various offices in
the organization through the
years. She was vice president
at the time of her death. Mrs.
Harvey was always ready to do
her part in anything she was
called upon to do In the church
and community as long as her
health permitted. “Shestretched
out her hand to the poor, yea,
she reached forth to the needy*’.
Her sweet, kind disposition
endeared her to every one. She
was quiet and sweet in her
manner, unselfish In her deeds
and clothed with humility. She
was a loving and devoted mother
and grandmother and a kind and
loving friend.
Her last months on earth were
months of physical suffering. It
Is a comfot to her loved ones
and friends to know that she Is
now occupying the mansion in
Heaven, a habitation not made
with the hands of man, a habitation
In which there Is no sorrow, no
pain and no suffering. She loved
the Lord, “His word was a lamp
unto her feet, and a light unto
her path’’. She fought a good
fight, she finished her course,
she kept the faith. She Is now
wearing her crown of righteous
ness.
Funeral services were held
Sabbath afternoon, September 5,
at three o’clock, conducted by
her pastor, Rev. Wayne Dicker
son, Rev. Carl Standard and Rev.
Charles Moody. Burial was in
the Hopewell Cemetery. The
funeral was attended by a large
gathering of relatives and friends
and floral tributes to her memory
were numerous and beautiful.
To her family who knew her
best and loved her most, and who
so tenderly cared for her during
her long Illness, we extend
deepest sympathy, we too, shall
miss her greatly, but let us
now think of her as “Passing
from storm and tempest to un
broken calm, of waking up and
finding it Home”.
