rial Hospital. Mrs. Bacon was born to the late Mr. Jim and Mrs. Ge- 
neva Mikel. This union produced eleven children, of which Annie

dutifully as President and Treasurer of the Mission Department, as a 
Sunday School Teacher, as Treasurer of the Christmas Savings 
Club, and in the Church Food Service Department. 
On April 1, 1940, she was united in Holy Matrimony to the 
late William (Buddy) Bacon. To this union four children were born.

other obligations, she only completed the eleventh grade, but she 
was still a lady of great wisdom, knowledge, and understanding.

and devoted family: one daughter, Mrs. Glenda B. Cooley (James)

two brothers-in-law: Mr. Charlie Blocker of Claxton, Georgia and Mr. 
Landis Bacon of Bellville, Georgia; a very devoted and caring niece, 
Ms. Dorothy M. Mikel; seven grandchildren, one of whom preceded 
her in death, eleven great-grandchildren, two great-great- 
grandchildren, and a host of loving and caring nieces, nephews, 
other relatives, and friends. 
A Tribute 
when a face that is dear no longer is here, and a voice that we loved is hushed. 
It seems as if time went too quickly, it seems as if things were too rushed. 
But one hy one clearly recall the joys that were shared in them all. 
We watched you struggle day after day. your body racked with pain. 
Only the agony upon your face, revealed the stoiy plain. 
When asked out of concern aboutyour health, your reply remained the same, I'm alright". 
Dedication and devotion was your life, your strength and valor were unequaled. 
You were God's number one soldier.

Miss Me  But Let Me Go 
When I come to the end of the road 
And the sun has set for me 
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room. 
Why cry for a soul set free? 
Miss me a little  but not too long 
And not with your head bowed low. 
Remember the love that we once shared, 
Miss me  but let me go. 
For this is a journey that we all must take 
And each must go alone. 
Its all a part of the Masters plan, 
A step on the road to home. 
When you are lonely and sick of heart 
Go to the fnends we know 
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds. 
Miss Me  But Let Me Go!
