Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, July 10, 1884 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Obituary - In this village, June 20, 1884, Mrs. Albert Philbrick, aged 74 years. The deceased has been a member of the Congregational Church in this village for 33 years, having joined it on profession of faith, October 1851. Faithful to all her duties as a wife and mother, she has lived to see the loved ones of home, once gathered at a mother's knee, and filling heart and home with joys of childhood's buoyant life, grow up to manhood and womanhood, and then going forth to build up homes of their own, leave hers to the silence of memory. She has lived to walk the lonely path of widowhood, having been suddenly deprived of the partner of her life, the father of her children. But in all these circumstances she has had the consolation of the conscious presence and companionship of Him who has said for the faith of every trusting soul, "lo I am with you always, even to the end of the world." That conscious companionship did not desert her in the last lonely days of her earthly pilgrimage, but soothed and sustained by an unfaltering trust, she has lain down for her final rest "like one who wraps the drapery of his couch around him and lies down to pleasant dreams." "Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep." She leaves to those who mourn a mother's departure the memory of a worthy Christian life as a light to guide them up and on to their mother's peace and joy in the home of the ransomed and sanctified.
