In Memoriam
Mary Ann Coker
Born May 20, 1853
Died Nov 21, 1923
A Mother in Israel has fallen. After seventy years of toil, a servant of the Lord has been called from labor to reward. At 11:30 Wednesday night a summons came. It found her ready. For nine weeks she bravely fought to recover from what all thought to be a temporary indisposition. Only toward the last did her dear ones lose hope. Even so, they were not prepared for the quiet passing which took them by surprise. She said, "I want to know when I am going." Her wish was granted. On the last day she declared that she was only waiting till Jesus came to take her home, and seemed eager for the hour.
Sister Coker was the daughter of Robert and Catherine Dean. At the age of twenty she united in wedlock with Moses Coker. Of this union sixteen children were born, eight of whom survive: Robert J., William H. and Nathan L. Coker, Albeda Clark, Sadie J. Washington, Angie Mosley, Amanda Carney and Caroline Jackson.
On April 25, 1898, death claimed the husband and father but comfort was found thereafter in the loving care of devoted children. Other members of the bereaved family are five brothers and two sisters: Robert, John, Jesse, U.S. Grant and William Dean; Annie E. Mosley and Hester Seeney.
