RUTHA TACKETT

It is with much sadness, but with many precious memories that we try to write the obituary of our dear Mother and Companion.
Rutha Tackett was born July 22, 1916, the daughter of Sallie Akers Frasure and the late FL-die Frasure. She departed this life on December 21, 1983. She was married to Freel Tackett on March 18, 1937. Unto this union was born two daughters, Elma McKinney and Dora Lou Roberts, and one son, Donald Ray Tackett, all of Grethel, Kentucky. She had seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren whom she loved very much.
Also remaining to mourn her loss are five brothers, Robert, Aderos, Noah, Eskil and Walter Frasure; and three sisters, Rosa Ellis, Nellie Bush and Zella Minnehan, and a host of relatives and friends.
She was a member of the Pilgrim Home Church of the Old Regular Baptist for 28 years and 8 months and was a faithful member until death.
She attended church and visited the hospitals, nursing homes and the homes of the sick many times when she wasn't able to go herself, but she seemed to feel much better after having gone. Even when she was in the hospital during her last days, she would ask for some of the minsters to come in and see her. She would tell us that she felt so good after they visited her. The doctors had said she wasn't strong enough to have visitors and had told us to keep everyone out except the immediate family, but we knew how much she loved to be with her friends and brothers and sisters in the Lord, so we tried with all our hearts to keep her comfortable, but still let her friends and loved-ones visit her.
She is missed so much around the home, church and neighborhood. Our place will never be the same. It is very lonely without her but we feel our loss is Heaven's gain.
