OVA SELF

    
OVA SELF
          We, the Mt. Zion Primitive Baptist Church, bow in humble submission  to the 
calling of our Sister, Ova D. Self by our heavenly Father.
         Mrs. Ova  Spillers  Self  was  born  in  1890  and  died December 25, 1974 after 
a long illness .
         She  had joined the Primitive Baptist Church at an early time in her life and was an active 
member until  her  health failed.
          For  many years she was a nurse and administered to many people.  She was also 
a good neighbor,  always  helpful  and sharing with others.
          During  a  very trying time in her life, it was noted by her neighbors that she seemed 
to get a great amount of  consolation  from  singing  our  Primitive Baptist songs as she 
went about her work.
          She leaves to mourn her passing  one  brother  and  many nieces  and nephews, her 
fellow church members and a host of friends who remember the beautiful person she was.
          Be it resolved that a copy of this resolution be sent to the family, a copy to THE 
PRIMITIVE  BAPTIST  LIGHT,  and  a copy be entered in our church book.
Elder W.R. Daniel, Moderator
Annie Young, Church Clerk
