Delilah Baggett, wife of A.J. Baggett, which departed this life August 4, 1895. Delilah Glover was her maiden name. She became the wife of A.J. Baggett January 25th, 1850. They lived happily together as husband and wife 45 years, 6 months, and 10 days. They had born to them 14 children, 9 of which with a devoted husband, she leaves to mourn their loss. She was the grandmother of 40 children, 35 of which she leaves to follow her. At the age of 65 years, 11 months and 4 days, she peacefully and submissively, without a struggle or pain, accepts the
inevitable appointment of all men once to die. For 38 years mother lived a consistent Christian. Mother leaves a vacant place that never can be filled on earth. Just here we are compelled to ask what is home without a mother? It has lost its attraction, therefore it is incomplete.

Realizing as we now do that death ends all opportunities for making mother happy, let me say to all who still have that opportunity, to be sure you have nothing to regret when she is gone. Believing that heaven is what heaven means, what can it be to mother without her children, then with one voice let us all exclaim, Mother we are coming to enjoy with you the happiness of heaven through the ceaseless ages of eternity.

I pray to God to let us live, so that we can exclaim from the very depth of our souls, three of the sweetest words that is on record, Mother, Home, and Heaven.

By Her Son, Charles A. Baggett
