** OBITUARY **

1990

"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain. "
REVELATION 21:4

Genevieve A. Meyers died at the University Hospital on Wednesday, August 22, 1990.

She became a Christian when she was a very young girl and began her work in Christ's Kingdom at the Bethel A.M.E. Church and has been a faithful and ardent worker for many years.

She was especially loyal to the work of the Deaconess Board, the Missionary Society, Stewardess Board Number Two, James Singleton Sunday School Class, the Hannah-Stephens Choir, and the Conference Branch Missionary Society, never refusing a task because she was already too busy, or because she was too tired.

Today we are silent, to pay tribute to a person who has lived among us as "one who went about doing good" and who always put Christ first in everything she did.

Genevieve was a lovable character, a person everyone chose to have as a friend and willing to be a friend to all. She never pushed herself forward, but always stayed in the background working and praying and doing whatever she was called upon to do for her Master.

She leaves to cherish her memory, a sister, Emma Elizabeth Seay, Augusta, Georgia and an extended family of friends.

L ove is much more than a tender caress A n d more than bright hours o f gay happiness,
For a lasting love is made up o f sharing Both hours that are "jo y o u s" and also "despairing" . . .
I t 's made up o f patience and deep understanding A n d never o f selfish and stubborn demanding.
I t 's made up o f " C L I M B I N G T H E S T E E P H I L L S T O G E T H E R " A n d facing with courage "L I F E 'S S T O R M I E S T W E A T H E R " A n d nothing on earth or in heaven can part A love that has grown to be part o f the heart, A n d ju s t like the sun and the stars and the sea, The love will go on through E T E R N I T Y -- For "true love" lives on when earthly things die, For i t 's part o f the S P I R I T that soars to the "S K Y . " ************
