IN LOVING MEMORY OF MRS. V. A. NIBLACK
[Poem]
On July 18th, 1934, to many the beauty of a summer day lost its happy aspect and the glory of the rising sun faded, when almost without warning, the freed spirit of Mrs. Alice Hardy Niblack winged its flight to the land of perfect day.
She was born August 6th, 1866. On May 3rd, 1885, she was married to Mr. V. A. Niblack, who, with three sons and three daughters survive her. She was a member of the Baptist church, and her life was full of good works and alms deeds which she did. Her quick sympathies, bright intellect and winning hands made the paths of many less stony. The family, community, town, and the church, who have sustained this loss realize that her price was far above rubies. Her shining example is before, ever leading us onward; her spirit will hover around us, inspiring our hearts; her influence abides like perfume when the alabaster box is broken.
For years she sang in the choir in the church to which she belonged. How dearly she loved music, and the service she rendered in God's House was wrought in love for the church and praise to God. Now she is transferred from the earthly to the Heavenly choir. The beautiful music which she made for others while on earth was but the echo of God's perfect harmony. The Woman's Missionary society of the Baptist church, of which she was a member, suffers an irreparable loss, but realize that for her "to die is gain," and "to depart and be with Christ is far better."
