Obituary
Nancy C. Justice Curry
Mrs. Curry died Feb. 26, 1894. She married Bro. I. W. Curry
Aug. 16, 1863, and in 1867 united with the M. E. Church South. Bro. Curry
lost his sight early in their married life and has been blind for more than
twenty years; so being poor and raising a large family made the burden
exceedingly heavy on Sister Curry, but she succeeded in bringing up their
children in a way highly creditable to them. Their boys had just succeeded
in getting a comfortable home for their parents to enjoy in the decline of
their life, but God took Sister Curry. May the love and grace of God uphold
her husband, sons and daughter.

Dunaway, mother of Mrs. Dow Dunaway McGregor]
