Goins, J. G.

On Tuesday, February 21, 1922, Brother J. G. Goins, seventy-nine years old, breathed his last. He had been a cripple ever since the Civil War, and had to use a crutch, but as long as he was able he attended church every Lords day. Uncle Johnnie, as we called him, was born in Williamson County, Tenn., on September 26, 1842. He was married to Angeline Parker on February 10, 1867, and to them were born eight children. Six are still living, five sons and one daughter. All were present when he was laid to rest. He obeyed the gospel in 1884 under the preaching of J. P. Litten. Brother G. A. Fitzgerald spoke at his funeral, and he was laid to rest at Iowa Park by the side of his wife, who passed away seven years ago. J. C. Goins and wife lived with him the past six years and cared for him! Uncle Johnnie was always ready to advance the cause of Christ and to help the poor in every way he could. If he had an enemy, we did not know it. His advice to those of his children who were not Christians was to live better. We may meet him in the sweet by and by if we will.
