OBITUARY
Passing over thousands and millions who died in in-
fancy, and in youth and in the bloom of life, we may say to
all who attain the full age or more, that life is a ' vapor that
appeareth for a little time then vanisheth away".
The flowers that discharge their ministry of love, elaborate
their seed and die, but not until their work is done. The
mighty oak retains its vigor for ages, but falls at last. The
insect race fade with the leaf and die with dying years; their
span is brief, but they have finished their work, and dropped
into timely dissolution; but for man, death comes at all seasons
and all ages. Often He sends no summons before Him, but
floats unseen on the breeze.
Death comes on hushed footsteps to all. Thus it came to
our dear brother Rev. Feltz Henry Hart on Saturday, June 3,
1972.
The Reverend Feltz Henry Hart was born February 18, 1908
in Glasscock County, Gibson, Georgia. He joined Hart's Grove
Baptist Church, Jefferson County in 1917.
He was licensed to preach April 3, 1926 and ordained
August 8, 1928 at the Hart's Grove Baptist Church by the Rev.
erend R. L. Boyd. He pastored from 1930 to 1972 where he
died as Pastor of the Mount Calvary Baptist Church since 1961.
He served as President of the Ministers Alliance of Augusta,
Ga., and secretary of the General Missionary Baptist Conven-
tion of Georgia.
In 1932 he was united in holy wedlock with Lure Roberts.
To this union 3 children were born.
He leaves to cherish his memories his widow, Mrs. Lure
Roberts Hart; two daughters, Mrs. Myrtle H. Woods and Mrs.
Clesther H. Peters; one son, Alton Hart; two sisters, Mrs. Cleo
Pettis, Augusta, Ga.; Mrs. Queen Ester Thomas, Mt. Vernon,
New York; aunt, Mrs. Sing Davis, Augusta, Ga.; one daughter-
in-law, Frances H. Hart; seven grands, sisters-in-law; brother-
in-law, nieces, nephews, and other relatives and a host of
friends.
Servant of God, well done. Rest from thy loved
employ;. The battle fought, the victory won,
Enter thy master joy."
