From the Coweta County News of March 31, 1882:
Death has again visited our community and taken from the fond embrace of his family, our much esteemed and beloved neighbor, Rezen Mobley, who breathed his last at 11 o'clock, Wednesday, March 22nd.
As a church member, his Christian walk was unwavering and worth to be imitated; for 35 years he was a consistent member of the Baptist church at Macedonia, filling the office of deacon to the full satisfaction of the brethren. He bore his six years of affliction with Christian fortitude and resignation.
A kind husband and loving father is gone to the rest which awaits all the faithful. We part with him in hopes of meeting him beyond that dark river, where the wicked cease to trouble and the weary are at rest. His funeral was preached at Macedonia church on Tuesday, March 23rd, by the Rev. J. B. S. Davis of Newnan, from the 30th Chapter of Mark and from the 34th verse to the close of the 37th, after which his body was consigned to its resting place in the silent grave, by the side of his first wife, at Macedonia cemetery.
