Obituary Exer L. Prewitt
On last Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Exer L. Prewitt, wife of Mr. G. W. Prewitt, fell asleep in Jesus.
Mrs. Prewitt was born Sept. 18, 1853 and died July 8, 1905. She leaves a husband, one son and four step-children who will sadly miss her. Being gentle and kind, she won the hearts of all who knew her. She was a constant member of the Baptist Church at Grand Junction. She loved her church and was always ready to contribute to its support. Her love for the Lord Jesus made her a more devoted wife and mother. Her husband and children will ever cherish her memory and will miss her ministration of love. Life had for her its joys and sorrows, having lost three children, the last, a grown son four years ago. She was laid to rest by the side of loved ones gone before in the cemetery at Grand Junction.
Her relatives and friends will ever remember the ties of love that she had so surely entwined around their hearts.
May the dear Lord bind up each of the broken hearts and prepare them for that great reunion on the other side is the prayer of
One Who Loved Her
