IN LOVING MEMORY OF MRS. DELIA M. YOCUM
Who entered into heavenly rest March 20th, 1923, aged 77 years, nine months and one day.

She has joined the choir invisible, The voice we loved to hear; Sings now with fair celestials, With friends, to her, most dear.

The old, old question that every bereaved heart has asked since the shadow of death darkened the threshold of the first home, comes to bereaved hearts to-day, and as the casket covers the beloved features, and the grave closes over the precious form of the dear one, the breaking heart cries out in anguish: "If a man die, shall he live again?"

Science cannot unravel this mystery of silence, philosophy can find no clue; nature is dumb in the presence of this awful tragedy; but Jesus, radiant with hope and consolation, whispers to the sorrowing heart, "I am the resurrection, and the life, he that liveth and believeth in me shall never die!" Job said, "all the days of my appointed time will I wait until my change comes." And the Psalmist said, "I shall be satisfied when I awake in His likeness."

One who watched at the bedside of our sister and friend, as she was quietly passing away, said to her, "You are going to sleep soon, and you may awaken here, or maybe in the better world; does it make any difference to you?" and she answered, "not a bit of difference." And so she slept her life away sweetly, and peacefully, without fear or dread of the "King of Terrors," for beneath her, and about her, were the ever lasting arms of her loving Heavenly Father, and so, it matters not whether we sleep or wake, "we are in His keeping." How beautiful, how precious, how comforting the blessed truth! "He that believeth in me shall never see death!" The shadow falls, but death is swallowed up in victory!"

Delia M. Yocum was born in the little town of Mascoutah, Illinois, June 21, 1845. She was the oldest daughter of Moses Fike and Sarah Howell. She came of splendid parentage--the Fikes and the Howells. The men were brave, courageous and honorable, standing for righteousness always. The women were beautiful, intellectual and worthy.
Mrs. Yocum became a Christian in early life, uniting with the Baptist church at the age of 14. The Fikes were Methodists and the Howells were Baptists. In 1892 she changed her membership to that of the M.E. church joining with her husband, J.T. Kennedy, who while health hunting in Arizona, was gloriously saved and on his sick bed became a member of the church he loved. His body rests in distant Arizona, far from home and kindred, but he could sing with sweet assurance that blessed old hymn:
"There is a spot to me more dear Than native vale or mountain, A spot for which affection's tear Springs grateful from its fountain.
"Tis not where kindred souls abound, Though that is almost heaven, But where I first my Savior found, And felt my sins forgiven!"
Mrs. Yocum was a woman of many gifts and of a noble and generous nature, gladly sharing the last crust with one more needy than herself. She was a graduate of Greenville Female Seminary, Greenville, Ill., and for a time attended McKendree College, at Lebanon, Ill. She was a woman of fine intellect, and literary attainments; while others slept she burned the midnight oil poring over her precious books, and storing her memory with the riches of literature. But music was the passion of her life. We who have listened to that melody-filled voice, so sweet, so clear, so pure in its velvety softness, can never forget. The often said, "when I get to heaven I am going to take up music. I intend to get it all." Her ear was so exquisitely attuned to the melody of sweet sounds that she could detect the faintest discord. Often, during the long lonely nights of the winter just passed, when sleep would depart from her weary eyes, she would spend the wakeful hours in singing over and over the old hymns and ballads she had sang in other years, and at her organ she spent many happy hours playing and singing the grand old hymns she loved so much. One peculiarly sad feature of her passing was the absence of her children to whom she was passionately attached. The beloved daughter lying dangerously ill in a nearby hospital, and the devoted son far away on the Pacific Coast; thus deprived of the last tender ministrations of her best beloved! But she was blest with the care and sympathy of loving devoted friends and though, the summons came as a thief in the night, she was ready. She had remarked just a few weeks ago at the grave of a friend, the last funeral that she attended in Galena, "I am ready when the summons comes." What more shall we say? Our hearts are sorely stricken. We rejoice for her blessed exchange—yet we cannot but weep because we shall see her face no more. She filled a large place in the heart of this little community in which she lived so long, and her departure is sincerely mourned.
Her funeral was held in the M.E. church, the "White Cross Chapel", to which she was so devoted, and was attended by a host of sympathizing neighbors and friends. The service was conducted by Dr. McCormick, pastor of Grace M.E. church Springfield, Mo., and assisted by Dr. McQuary, an old friend and neighbor. Dr. McCormick was with her as she sweetly fell asleep, and had the assurance that "Jesus can make a dying bed feel soft as downy pillows are, while on His breast I lean my head, and breathe my life out sweetly there!"
The service was very impressive, beautiful, tender and comforting. The music by her special friends, and the flowers, all were testimonials of the high regard in which she was held. Her body was laid to rest in the Galena cemetery beside the body of her former husband B.F. Yocum, and of her beloved daughter, Maudeva Kennedy, who preceded her many years to the Better Land. Two are left to cherish her memory, E. Leslie Kennedy of Los Angeles, Calif., who came across the continent to attend her bedside, and Mae Kennedy-McCord of Springfield, Mo.
Dear children, look up through your tears and thank God for the wonderful mother she was to you, for you shall see her again, clothed in immortality, glorified, for she has looked upon the "King in His beauty," and so we leave her, "asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep, from which none ever wake to weep; a calm and undisturbed repose, unbroken by the last of foes!"
