Funeral services were held at the home of the deceased in Carnegie, officiated by Mrs. Mannin, pastor of the Nazarene church of Spring Valley, after which a number of friends and relatives accompanied the remains to the Carnegie cemetery where interment was made. Mr. Smith moved to Carnegie in August of 1926 from Ness City, Kan. He was known wherever he lived as an honest and upright man in his dealings with his fellowmen. He was was a good neighbor and a good citizen, a good companion and father. In his last hours he was heard to pray very earnestly and then to sing the good old song, "Nearer My God to Thee," and died peacefully and without a struggle passed into the great beyond, there to wait the coming of those he has left behind. We want to say to the loved ones, weep not as those who have no hope, but fix your heart and hopes upon God and look beyond this vale of tears and sorrows to that home where partings come no more. |
