** OBITUARY **
Two of lifes greatest mysteries are birth and death. We never cease to wonder about
these inevitables. Death, for certain, always comes as a welcomed friend. Such an
experience came to Mrs. Lela Youngblood Fason on Thursday morning, January 1,
1987.
Lela Calham Youngblood Fason was born in Anderson, South
Carolina, October 26, 1911 to Bill and Estell Calham. Lela moved to
Augusta at an early age. Here she met and married Charles
Youngblood, Sr. To this union one son was born, Charles Youngblood,
Jr. Since that time both husband and son have gone on to glory.
Later in life, Lela married Willie Fason and remained married to
him until March 27,1968 when the Lord called him home. They did not
have any children.
Lela joined the Mount Calvary Church Family in 1937 under the
leadership of Rev. E. A. Moss. She served in the church faithfully in
many areas, including the Senior Usher Ministry until her health
rendered duties impossible.
Sister Fason worked hard for the Lord and her labors will not be in
vain. She leaves to mourn her passing, two devoted brothers and sisters-
in-law, Rudolph and Lettuce Fason, Sr. of Augusta and Hamie and
Lucille Fason, Walterboro, S.C.; a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Myrtis
Youngblood, St. Petersburg, Fla.; five grandson, Charles, Kenneth,
Phillip, Rickey and Michael Youngblood all of St. Petersburg, Fla.; two
granddaughters, Carolyn and Janice Youngblood of St. Petersburg,
Fla.; a devoted cousin, Mrs. Sylvia Levy, Jacksonville, Fla.; and a host of
friends, relatives and fellow Christians.

We need but reach a little
To learn that God is near.
We need but pray in whispers
To know that he can hear.
