OBITUARY
of
George Rusaell Sander*
George Russell Sanders was bhe
oldest son of H. T. and Miss Myrtle
Sanders, being at bhe time of his
death about 22 years old}. He was
horn Feb. lfifch, 1903, and died on
tha 20th day of January, 1925.
George Russell joined the Metho
dist Church at Danielsville at an ear
ly a#e and was always one of it 9
■•ost faithful and loyal members.
From his earliest childhood he was
a member of the Sunday School, and
continued so until a short time be
fore bis death. He loved the church
acud the Sunday School and his whole
life was both an example and an in
spiration to all. He was cut down
m early manhood because of a dead
ly heart leison, having battled with
this condition flor more than seven
years. But even in file faoe of such
a deadly attack of the above named
•audition he did nut on a good fight,
and was always cheerful aud patieut,
and was always looking on the bright
side, and wishing f*r the ht.
Living, he taught us the love ,*f
Go*l and right and honesty and jus
tice, and he had that kindliness, af
fection and devotion fo-i his home—
that is. his father and mother and
brother, which made all love him so
much. All these things made the
sweetness of his life. Within our
memory there was never a young
man reared in and around this towu
and county who had more friends.
If he had an enemy it is not known.
Many centuries ago a wise man
said, “By two wings r man is lifted
up from things earthly, namely, hy
simplicity and puritv.” We eannot
doubt that the splendid young man
tfiat George Russell was has gone to
share the reward that remains for
the pure in heart, who, ia all truth
aud fidelity was such a man. Well
might be said of him, that:
“This life was gentle and the elements
So mixed in him that nature might
stand up,
And say to all the world, ‘This was
a man.’ ”
Tie ha-; left us a shining example
of his life well spent, while yet so
short, yet with many, many kind
words and deeds which shall always
live.
“In peace it was his let to die,
In peace, O may his ashes lie;
And sweetest peace, while ages roll,
Attend his noble, manly soul.”
—His Sunday School Class
