Adams--Charles M. Adams, esteemed friend, faithful and beloved brother in Christ, and minister of the church in Eden, Texas. died suddenly and unexpectedly in Marionville, Mo., May 24. Brother and Sister Adams had been to St. Louis to attend funeral services for his brother conducted in that city on May 22 and enroute home stopped in Marionville, Mo. where they had earlier lived, and he had served as regular minister of the church to worship on the Lord's day. He was asked to preach and while speaking fell in the pulpit with a severe heart attack from which he never recovered. He is survived by his wife of thirty years, by one brother, Delbert E. Adams. Portland. Ore., and by one sister, Margie Bell Gipson, Oceanside, Calif. He was buried in Restland Cemetery in Dallas, Texas, and the final rites were conducted by brethren Melvin J. Wise and Virgil Bentley. He was 51 years old. Brother Adams was an alumnus of Freed-Hardeman College. He preached the gospel as opportunity offered while in the Navy during World War II. His first full-time local work was in Walters, Oklahoma in 1947. He preached regularly for churches in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri until his death. He had been minister at Eden, Texas for about two years. I was occasionally associated with him by conducting meetings where he worked and I knew him well. He loved the truth; he preached it with power and great effectiveness; and his life's work was fruitful and full. He now rests from his labors; and his faithful wife along with all of us who mourn his passing may indeed find comfort in the assurances of the Lord and the great and precious promises of his Word. -Guy N. Woods. Gospel Advocate, July 30, 1970, 495.
