Death is certain - it may come in youth, young manhood or old age, but come it will; therefore it is well that we be on the alert, ready to meet the Grim Reaper.

Read More	From the Skidmore, Missouri New Era, September 2, 1915, page 1: "In Memory of Roy Cottril To be born to die is decreed of all men. Death is certain - it may come in youth, young manhood or old age, but come it will; therefore it is well that we be on the alert, ready to meet the Grim Reaper. Mystery, to a certain extent surrounds death. We know not why one whose life is so full of promise, should be suddenly taken from us, but the great consolation comes that the time is short when the great reunion will take place. How fortunate it is for us that there is a plan outlined whereby the grave is robbed of its victory and the sting of death is eliminated. In planning his future Roy did not fail to take advantage of this plan. He followed it in the same manner that he followed all his undertakings, thoroughly and conscientiously. He has left monuments that make it impossible to forget him - not monuments of stone but monuments of progressiveness, integrity and love. He did not acquire the habit of inhaling ideas, but learned to do his own thinking, therefore he was progressive to an advance degree, and although young in years, he was considered authority on many subjects. His heritage is rich in all the attributes that tend towards perfect manhood. In a word, his life was well lived because he used the talents his Maker had bestowed upon him. He was born March 20, 1885, six miles northwest of Skidmore. Later he moved to the farm one and one-half miles northwest of Skidmore, where he resided until he was called away, on August 27, 1915. He leaves a wife and two children, brother and sister and a host of friends who mourn his departure, but who find consolation in the fact that his was an honest, upright, Godly life, whose reward will be immortality. - A Friend."
