Alvis Eugene Robbins died at his home in Cates Friday morning Feb 5 1904
at 8 o'clock of bronchial trouble having been sick only 24 hours. It was
noticed by the parents that he was not well Thursday morning but his
condition was not considered serious till evening when he began to grow
steadily worse until the end came. The little one seemed to endure his
suffering with great patience. All medical aid and everything that could
be donef or the little sufferer by his parents and friends was done, but
the good father doeth all things well had called little Alvis to come up
higher to dwell with the angels, where there is no sickness nor sorrow and
no more goodbyes. And today we know that Alvis is safe in the arms of
Jesus, only waiting for his papa and mama, his little brother and sister
he lvoed so well. While we mourn with his parents in their great sorrow
and know that they can no more here on earth se!
e the msmiling face or hear his merry laughter that was continually
brightening their home for he was such a sunny child. He was never passed
ont he street unnoticed and to know Alvis was to love him. But behind the
darkest clouds there shines a silver lining and we can say to the mourning
ones cheer up. All is well with alvis, someday we will understand it all
some day we will clasp hands with the little one beyond the river. He was
put away amid tears and flowers and his sweet little angel form will never
be before us as we last saw him. The funeral was conducted by Rev. Taylor
at the home on Sunday at 11 o'clock in a very appropriate manner before a
host of mourning freinds and relatives. A very impressive part of the
sermon was the singing of two of his favorite Sudnay School songs.
Interment was made at Snoddy's cemetery, conducted by M. Boord of
Covington. Little Alvis was born at Cates, ind March 3 1901 died Feb 5
1904, aged 2 years 11 months 2 days. He leaves !
to mourn his loss a father, mother, an elder brother and infant sister
and many relatives and friends.
