Obituary:

John Willis Dungy was born June 8, 1854, and departed this life July 6, 1936, at the ripe old age of 82 years and 28 days.

He was united in marriage to Miss Ada Douglass Webb on Oct. 20, 1878. To this happy union ten children were born, two of whom passed away in infancy. There remains to mourn his passing eight children, Mrs. Maud Johnson of Benton, Wm. Edgar of Benton, Mrs. Margaret Haitchcoat of Charleston, W. Va., Mrs. Nancy Jane Dial of McLeansboro, Ill., Mrs. Inah Russell of Rend City, Archie L. of Akron, Ohio, Mrs. Anna Belle Flannigan of Marion, Ind., and Mrs. Bertha Drew at home.

Mr. Dungy was the oldest and last member of ten children. He made no profession of religion by uniting with any church, but he gave sweet assurance of the work of grace in his heart by patient submission to the determined end of all men, saying "I'm ready to go."

Anxious hearts and willing hands kept faithful vigil to the end of his sojourn and now humbly submit to his passing with hope of family reunion where all tears are wiped away and death can never come.
