A Tribute to Mother Just eight months ago, on Decem ber 28, 1926, the Death Angel enter ed our home *nd the spirit of my dear Motibjer, Mrs. Virginia Sancers, took ita flight from this world And enter ed into etemri rest prepare*} for those who love the Lord. She had lived to the ripe old age of 82 and her life Was most beautiful. While she regretted to leave her loved ones here, yet she repeatedly said, “I am ready and willing to go whenever my Master calls me. 1 Just a few days before her depar ture she remarked, “How sweet will be to go to sleep and awake in Heaven.” In every detail of her walk in life she honored'and obeyed Him — the Captam oYTier Salvation. She wa.« the very essence of truth, of love and of loyalty, both to God to her fellow man, always bear ing testimony of greatest faith in her Lord and Savior. Other very strik ing characteristics were modesty and dignity of the highest type. Her un- u'ual personality was such that her very presence seemed to demand the respect cf every one and to create an atmosphere of love and fellowship among those with whom she as«o- difficulty cheerfully and bravely. No blatter what the eimuaetances may hare been she never for one moment wavered, hut (remained true -to every responsibility entrusted to her. Being the wife of a minister,Hi er heairt and home ware thrown open to all and her every thought was to ad vance . the Kingdom of God. Her genial smile, which greeted every one at a ll times, was an index to her character. The bmutifUl spirit of unselfishness and hospitality char acterised her whole life. No sacri fice was too great for her to make for others, neftSt considering how much trouble or inconvenience it might mean to her. Few women possessed such lovable traits as she, and many whose plea sure it was to be in her home have spoken of it as being a benediction to them, iler beautiful life hah left its impress upon ell whose privilege it was to follow her. Many of. her closest friends and relatives haye ex pressed' a wish to this effect: “Oh, that I could be half as good as she.” She is not dead but liveth. I deem it a great heritage to be a daughter of such a mother' and trust that I may irritate W blsseml ersmpte md thal her influence shall guide me through life.
