In Memory of Mrs. Bettie Kestnerr
Passed from time to eternity from this Earthly church below to the
Calestial church above from the vexations trials and sorrows of this mundane
Sphere to the glorious happiness and rest of that House not made with hands
eternal in the heavens, on Wednesday, Feb. 16, 1916, Mrs. Bettie Kestner at
her home in Earlington, Ky. She was the wife of J.M. Kestner and was 64
years old, and a member of the Baptist church at this place. She was a hard
working and attentive church member and a consistent Christian full of years
and honors in the church of Christ beloved by all who knew her: her life was
characterized by intense devotion to her family of seven daughters and two
sons, in every walk of life her associates reverence her memory desires to
emulate her examples and pray that her consistent Christian life may inspire
and incourage and incourage our entire county to a more faithful, active and
loyal church membership and as was so characteristic of their life we miss
her in our homes we miss her in her Pew, we miss her cheerful greeting and
fraternal hand-shake, her christian bearing and good advice.
A precious one from us is gone,
A voice we love is still.
A vacant place is in our home,
Which can never be filled.
L.R. Yancey,
Kelleys, Ky.
