LASLEY, Sally

Putnam Co. Indiana Newspaper December 1898

Sally A. Lasley the subject of this sketch was born in Kentucky, January 29, 1816. She come to this state with her parents when a child. At the age of nine years she confessed faith in her loving Savior and has ever since been true and loyal to that faith. In her last illness which was about two weeks duration, she said she was ready and willing to go when her Master called, but she did not want to become impatient, and' her prayer was that she might be patient until life ended here below. She said “Oh, what a happy meeting that will be when I shall meet father, mother, brothers and sisters who have gone on before.” She gave about seventy-four years of her life to serving the Lord and Master, and her sojourn here below in one worthy of imitation, it being made up of those Christian graces that go to make up the true Christian character. She departed this life December the 16th, 1898. She leaves one sister, Demise Weller, one brother, Joseph D Lasley, and many other distant relatives. She is the last of the four maiden sisters that lived together. So long caring for father and mother and each other in there many weeks of sickness and death. She will be sadly missed by those who lived in her company daily. But alas she is no more and may the life she lived be an inspiration to us all to live the Christ life till the summons comes. It is finished. "Enter thou into the joys of thy Lord." D. I. L.
