Obituary:

The death angel visited our home and took from us our beloved father, John Day. He was ill only a few days, and died August 16, 1916. He left his wife, six boys and three girls, and many relatives and friends to mourn his loss. He was born in Alabama, October 11, 1850, came to Arkansas 30 years ago and remained home until his death. He was a member of the Baptist Church for 36 years and was a good citizen, a good husband, and a loving father. He was loved by all who knew him. It was sad for him to leave us, our home is lonely. He leaves a vacancy in our home that can never be filled, but God saw fit to call him home to his mansion above. Oh, how we miss him, but we can only prepare while we wait to meet him where there will be no more parting, no more pain or death, where we can be with him and praise God forever.

Written by his daughters,

Della and Ella
