daughter of Charles Robenson, 3rd wife of Elias Alexander Cunningham.
Farewell, But Not Forever
At noontide, November 4th, 1901, near Canton, Mrs. Sudie Cunningham, wife of Mr. E. A. Cunningham, gave up her earthly cares and went home to glory. She was a good Christian lady member of the Baptist Church. To know her was to love her, she was so kind and gentle to everyone. She leaves a husband and seven children so sad and lonely; besides, she helped to raise and care for six motherless children, making thirteen in all. Her least one, Lola Love, is hardly three years old and can never realize the love of a devoted mother. Father, and sisters, take care of and teach your mother's little treasures to be prepared to meet her on the sunny banks of the celestial shore, where there'll be no deaths, no more sad farewells, but one eternal day of felicity. The death messenger came into your happy home and plucked the dearest flower and wafter her spirit across the foaming tides of the Jordon. Today she dwells with Jesus, basking in the sunlight of his precious love and waiting at the pearly gates to meet her loved ones. The dearest ties on earth are severed, but some sweet day they will all be united into one happy band. We should not grieve for her, for there's no human tongue one earth can express her sufferings while here in this sinful world. It should be a pleasure to show that she was ready, willing, and prepared to go. Said 'all was well with her,' yet hated to leave her precious ones behind.
Her sweet smiles we?ll see no more,
She?s gone and left us lonely here,
And crossed to the other shore.
If the winds could waft her message,
She would say, ?Don?t grieve for me.
I have reached our Father?s mansion
In that home prepared for me.?
She is looking down upon us
From the realms of shadow land;
She is whispering softly sweetly:
?I have clasped our Savior?s hand.?
Her loving Niece, N. L. B.
