Today, we celebrate the home-going of one whose works were spoken so well through his loyal, dedicated, and faithful service to God and his church.

While in his youth, he was converted and baptized at the Silver Bluff Baptist Church, Beech Island, South Carolina. He was ordained a Deacon at Silver Bluff. He later joined Thankful Baptist Church of Augusta where he served in every capacity - whatever needed to be done, whenever needed, J.P. was there.

Life Is Eternal
"Life is eternal," the good Lord said, So do not think ofyour loved one as dead-
For death is only a stepping-stone To a beautiful life -we have never known. A place where God promised man he would be
Eternally happy and safe andfree, A wonderful land where we live anew When ourjourney on earth is over and throughSo trust in God and doubt Him never
For all who love Him live forever, And while we cannot understand Just let the Saviour take your hand, For when deaths angel comes to call "God is so great and were so small ..." And there is nothing you needfear, Forfaith in God makes all things clear.

Oil -
For the many kind deeds extended to J.P. during his illness, and for the pnyers, sympathy, and concern shown to each of us during mis time of his home-going, we are indeed grateful.
You have given us great strength and comfort. We will be forever appreciative. May God continue to bless each of you, is our prayer.
