David Butts, and three grandchildren..
Mr. Prosser was 68 years old. He
gave his heart and life to Jesus sev
eral years ago, and since that time
has endeavored to live a consistent
Christian life, being very attentive
to his church and the cause of his
Lord.
When his body became so feeble
that ho could not attend his church
services, it grieved him very much.
But he was-exceedingly patient
of his suffering, and did not
mur nor complain.
Mr. Prosser was a successful busi
ness man, because of his diligence
in business. But, he Was also ferv
ent in apiri:, serving the Lord.
His going leaves a sad vacancy in
the am y ^ j be bome> j n tbe church, in the com
munity. his Master needed him
to fill a higher position, so He pro
moted him.
Its very sad indeed to bo seperat-
ed, but’ it should fill us with joy to
km it the seperation will not be
lout, t too, shall soon receive our
promt. and shall serve day and
night in ir Master's Temple.
Sleep on dear husband, father,
grandfather, and brother. For we
know that while your body slumbers
there, your spirit is serving our
Lord.
