I would appreciate it if you would add the following obituary to John's memorial. Thank you so much! PPC
Moore, J. W.
It becomes my painful duty to inform you of the death of our highly respected and much esteemed brother, J. W. Moore. Bro. Moore was born Oct., 12, 1844 and died at his residence in Wayne county, Tenn., Jan. 20, 1887, aged 42 years, 2 months and 8 days.
Bro. Moore was a man who had a good report of those without as well as of those within. He reposed with implicit trust in the glorious and precious promises of the gospel bearing his suffering (which was very intense) with patience and Christian fortitude.
During his sickness, he frequently in conversation with his neighbors and friends expressed his willingness to die, or to use his own words, my way is clear I am prepared to go. Happy thought, glorious expression. Hence, we have the blessed assurance that Bro. Moore is now enjoying the glory, joy and happiness of the bright beyond. He leaves a wife and six children, an aged mother, and brothers and sisters with a host of friends to mourn his departure.(Submitted by C. E. Holt., Cypress Inn, Tenn., Jan., 23, 1887.)
