Sister Nannie Mobley
Out of respect to Sister Nannie Mobley, and with due respect and regards that we have for the Mobley family, our church, Cottonwood, on Saturday before the 3rd Sunday in December voted to write a resolution of respect for Sister Mannie Mobley who passed away on November 25, 1950 in San Saba County. Funeral Services were conducted November 27 here at Cottonwood Church by Elder J. W. West after which her body was laid to rest beside her husband in the Afton Cemetery to await the coming of our Lord and Savior.
Sister Mobley´s membership was not with us nor has been for several years but she visited the church often when she was able. But her and Brother Mobley were members in the early days of our church and after Brother Mobley passed away, she moved. Bro. R. S. Mobley, her son was a noble man to the church. Being an ordained deacon, he moved to the west plains in 1936 and took his membership and put it in a church out there. He, too, has since gone on to his reward.
Whereas of past memories of the joy with the saints of God and where sadness takes its stand, we feel more united to our loving heavenly Master that he has permitted just such great people as these to have been associated with. May the Lord enable Sister Mobley´s remaining children to see that she stood firm in the faith and to view her past that she served her Maker well.
Whereas we, Cottonwood Church, feel a loss, may we be reconciled that some sweet day there will be a great gathering. That we shall see Him and be like Him, then we will be satisfied. That we will not have to say goodbye to our loved ones anymore.
This done by order of Cottonwood Church while in conference on Saturday before the 3rd Sunday in December, 1950.
Elder J. W. West, Moderator
