*RUTH WOMACK
THE ADVANCE REPORTER; 27 January 1911
Mrs. Ruth Womack (nee Ruth Morris Meeks) passed away at the residence of her
son, William Sherrill, six miles east of Waldron, after an illness of 6 years'
duration, Jan.12, 1911, at 5 p.m. She was born in Crawford Co., Tenn. March
22nd, 1836. Came to Arkansas in Nov. 1883. Converted in early life, she joined
the Methodist church and lived a consistent christian life until death. When she
was in good health she was an active christian worker; holding prayer meetings
and helping in other ways to advance her Lord's kingdom. She was twice married,
first to Mr. Sherrill, to which union fourteen children were born, of whom six
are now living-five boys and one girl. Her second marriage was to Mr. Larkin
Womack.
Tolstoi, the Russian philosopher, paid one of the finest tributes to the wife
and mother when he said, "Only the mother, before her death, can say to Him
who sent her into this world and to Him who she has served by bearing and
bringing up children, beloved by her more than herself-only she can peacefully
say, 'Now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace.' "
While for years this good women was a great sufferer, now she rests in peace. It
is a real privilege to die when it means a transition from the realm of such
intense suffering to the realm of peace and rest.
She was laid to rest in Pilot Prarie cemetery Jan. 13, services by the writer. A
good women has gone to be with the angels. D.H Colquette.
