Obituary [From The Roanoke Leader (Randolph County, Alabama), 27 Aug 1919, p.1] Author: William Fischer Date: 2 Nov 2000 12:00 PM GMT WEHADKEE ITEMS.

It becomes our painful duty to chronicle the death of three old citizens in beat 5 the past week. Last Tuesday night Mr. A. J. GREEN entered the portals of Glory, following a long period of declining health. The deceased was nearly 82 years of age and was one of the county's best citizens. He attached himself to the Baptist church in August, 1866, and for many years was a deacon and leading member.

He left an aged wife [Mary Ann GREEN, 11 Mar 1843-20 Feb 1920], nine children, a large number of grand-children and several great-grand-children.

Revs. W. P. CUMBEE and H. R. MOORE conducted the funeral services at Big Springs church, Wednesday afternoon in the presence of a large congregation. The burial was conducted by the Masons.

From "The Roanoke Leader" newspaper, Roanoke Randolph County, Alabama NEWSPAPER Issue of Wednesday, September 10, 1919 RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT IN THE DEATH OF ANDREW J. GREEN By Omaha Lodge No. 696, A.F. & A.M. **********

Whereas, it has pleased almighty God on His great wisdom to call on August 19, 1919 from labor to refreshment, our beloved brother, Andrew J. Green; be it therefore resolved;

1st; that whereas the passing away of our brother should admonish us of our mortality, his virtues remind us of our high calling in this life and inspire us to higher thoughts and nobler deeds;

2nd; that we bow in reverential resignation to the mandates of the great one, who designates our place of labor, commands its beginning, appoints its boundary and determines its ending, in fulfillment of his own divine plans.

3rd; that we resolutely endeavor to imitate every good deed and fulfill every noble thought of our late companion and encouraged by his devotion to the excellent tenets of Masonry and strive to fashion our lives in comformity to the precepts contained in the Book of Law, and departing leave behind us the record of a well spent life enriched by the practice of every Masonic virtue.

4th; that we extend our sincere sympathy to his loved ones in their grief and that we pray unto Jehovah that His divine presence may ever attend them and that His abundant grace may fill the place in their hearts and lives once occupied by our departed brother.

Bro. Green was born October 2, 1837, was made a Mason at Rock Mills fifty years ago. He had been a charter member in the constitution of three Lodges; High Shoals, Walnut Hill and Omaha. Respectfully submitted, S.D. Lewis J.H. Brazeal A.D. Shaw, Committee
