OBITUARY
Maggie Hodges Barnes; daughter
ol Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Hodges,
was born Oct 2S, 1900, and tiled
September 19, 1936. She professed
faith in Christ and joined Brushy
Fork Baptist church at nn early age.
later moving her membership to
Oak Grove Baptist church by letter
where she remained a loyal and
faithful member until her untimely ?
death.
She bore her suffering with an unusual
degree of patience and put up a j
hard fight to ward off death, so
she might come back to her family
that she loved, though she was not
afraid to die. When the evening
shadows gathered around, her faith
in Christ was as strong as when she
accepted Him as her Savior. All the
attention and respect during her illness
and death was given her by her
family, relatives and friends. The
church and community were deeply
grieved.
She leaves three sons. Homer, Howard
and Harold, one brother, one sister
and her mother, with a large
number of relatives and friends who
mourn because of her death.
We ask that a copy of this he
given the bereaved family, a copy
kept among the records of the church
and a copy be published in The
Watauga Democrat.
