Newspaper article dated April 1, 1953:
Willie Lincoln, one of our most sincere christian gentlemen was called by death early Sunday morning. Having suffered a heart attack he was taken to the Corydon Hospital a few hours before death. Willie has been unable to walk for twenty some years. It has become a familiar sight to see Joe Applegate come carrying him into prayer service after doing his days work at Jeffersonville Depot and driving to Frenchtown to get Willie. Willie's testimony and prayers have been an inspiration to our church. His favorite song was "When We All Get To Heaven" after which he would shout and praise God for being so wonderful to him. He never complained of his afflictions. When greeted he always replied "I am just fine."
