Mrs. Rosie Smith, Apt 7A Oakview Apts, Brookhaven, Mississippi, was born April 1890. Sister Rosie passed away July 19, 1968. On December 20, 1906, she was joined to Mr. Lucius N. Smith in the bonds of holy matrimony. To this union were born nine children, 2 preceding her in death. Left behind to mourn her passing are her husband, Lucius; 2 daughters, Mrs. Ernest Montgomery (Mildred); and Mrs. Walter D. Higdon (Ayleen); 5 sons, Alter, Lamar, Leroy, Alva, and J. H. Smith; 3 brothers, Julian, Brandt, and Romie Smith—all of Port Arthur, Tex.; 15 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren; and a great host of brothers and sisters in Christ and friends, Sister Rosie served the Lord for about 48 years. Those with whom she associated knew that she was a Christian woman. It touches my heart to see my dear friends grieve but we are consoled to know the Lord promises, "be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life." Bro. John Smith assisted the writer in officiating at the funeral service. Interment was at New Salem.
