R.H. KENDRICKS
We, the Mt. Zion Primitive Baptist Church of Christ of Nixon, Texas, do humbly 
bow to  the  will  of  our  heavenly Father,  whereas.  He has seen fit to call home 
our Brother, R.H. Kendricks.  Brother Kendricks was born in Yell County, 
Arkansas  on   September   20,  1890 and passed away in Pleasanton, Texas on 
November 13, 1970  at  the  age  of  80 years, 1 month and 24 days.
When he was  a  small  boy,  his family moved to Ryan, Oklahoma where he remained 
for  some  time.   On April  26, 1908,  he  was  married  to Martha Jane Emerson;
and to this union were born seven children, six of whom are his  survivors.   To  these  
loved ones we extend our deepest sympathy; may the realize that their loss is his 
eternal gain and say,  "Thy Will be done."
In 1937,  Brother  Kendricks  moved   his   family   to  Pleasanton,  Texas  and  in 
that same year, he and his wife, Martha (who preceded him in death almost eight years) 
joined the San Antonio Primitive Baptist Church.  Then in July 1951,  they  came  to  
Mt.  Zion by statement and were received.  Both were faithful members.
On August  04,  1965,  Brother  Kendricks  married  Mrs.  Elmira  West Bridges of 
Pleasanton and lived there until his death.
Be it resolved that we send a copy of this Resolution to  THE PRIMITIVE BAPTIST 
LIGHT, a copy to  the  family,  and  a copy be entered into our church records. 
Written by request of Mt. Zion Primitive Baptist Church, Nixon, Texas.
