Rev. Hissom was the son of Rev. Earl G. Hissom Sr.
and Tressa Lena DODD. The Rev. Hissom is survived by his three children, Earl
G. Hissom III, Th.D., of Charleston, Judith Hall of Kentucky and Sharon Reed of
Colliers, W.Va.; eight grandchildren, Eric and Phil Hissom of Florida, Yvonne
Donlon of Charleston, Jeff LaChance of Delaware, Brad LaChance and Kye Fadeley

He was preceded in death by his wife, Julia;
parents, Earl and Tressa Hissom; brother, Charles and George; and sisters, Mary
Graham, Elizabeth Cash, Betty Atkins and Carol Ross. Rev. Earl Jr. was a
minister, evangelist and religious leader in West Virginia. He was converted
and called to preach at age 17 in a tent meeting being conducted by his father,
Earl G. Hissom Sr., located at the corner of Madison and Randolph Streets, the
current location of Sav-A-Lot and Agsten Manor. Before joining the Church of
the Nazarene in 1945, the Rev. Hissom sold Bibles, held tent meetings,
conducted revivals and preached whenever and wherever he could. He then
pastored at Uneeda and Seth. When the Seth church was organized into a Nazarene
Church by District Superintendent Dr. Oney, he lost his pastorate. Dr. Oney
said, "That's okay, son. Don't be upset. The Church of the Nazarene has
lots of places for you to preach." And they kept him busy the next 25
years, pasturing in Seth, New Martinsville, Glasgow, Weirton, Southeast
Nazarene and Capitol View Nazarene in Charleston. He also served as an
evangelist. During the years that he pastored for the Church of the Nazarene,
the Rev. Hissom was able to report gains in all departments with all budgets
paid. At every pastorate, he made notable capital improvements to church
properties. He served on various boards and committees of the West Virginia
District of the Church of the Nazarene. The Rev. Hissom was instrumental in
planting several Holiness churches, including Burnsville, Ohio, Paris, Pa.,
Handley, Hooverson Heights, Colliers Way, Capitol View (now known as South
Hills Church of the Nazarene) and the Church of Emmanuel in Charleston, and Gap
Mills. The Rev. Hissom served as a mentor and encourager for many young,
aspiring ministers, such as John Hancock, Harold Runyon, Carl Gray, James
Withrow, Paul Nester, Tony Costello and many others. During a recent telephone
call, Mrs. John Hancock expressed their deep appreciation for the tremendous
amount of time the Rev. Hissom spent with them in their early Christian lives.
After his retirement from the Nazarene Church, the Rev. Hissom operated a Bible
selling business, pastored the Hissom Holiness Tabernacle and the Church of
Emmanuel, Charleston, and Harry Peyton Tabernacle, Hinton. He continued to hold
revivals across the state of West Virginia, preach whenever and wherever he was
called and frequently conducted radio broadcasts. He also worked as a
fundraiser throughout the state for fire and police departments, emergency
services and health clinics through RMJ Studios. The Rev. Hissom was a renowned
Bible scholar. His favorite pastime was studying the Bible, preparing sermons
and discussing the scriptures. His hobbies were walking, hunting and watching
old westerns on TV.

SUNNYSIDE - Elmer Lee Satterfield, 81, beloved husband,
father, and grandfather died Thursday, July 28, 2005, peacefully at home in
Sunnyside after a long fight against cancer. Elmer was born September 7, 1923
to Roper Lee and Ersa Margaret (Brown) Satterfield in Palisade, Colorado. He was the youngest of ten children. He never
had a chance to graduate from school so farming was the dearest thing to him
besides family. He loved working with mother earth and could always be found
outside till dark. In 1942,
Elmer came to Washington to visit his brother and met his future wife, Thelma
I. Kinkade, of Mabton. He went into the Navy in 1943 and served in World War
II. On June 19, 1945, he received military leave and married Thelma in Selah.
Later that year he received an honorable discharge. In 1946, the first of his
two children was born, David E., and Karen L. They were his pride and joy.
Elmer and Thelma settled in Mabton and
farmed on Satus for several years. He loved raising mint, hay, corn, potatoes,
sugar beets, and cattle. Elmer was known
for his beautiful, straight rows, and large and weed-less gardens that grew the
best tasting vegetables around. In 1971, Elmer went to work for the Mabton
School District as maintenance man. He later went to work for the Grandview
School District and retired in 1988 as Maintenance Supervisor.
After retirement, Elmer and Thelma
had time to travel. They spent most of their time traveling to Washington State
Fiddlers Contests and to the best-known fishing holes. Elmer learned how to
play guitar at a young age and enjoyed playing with friends till the wee hours
of the morning. He won many awards and
trophies for best accompanist at various local contests and at the National
level.
After Elmer was diagnosed with
cancer, he wasn't able to go fishing and camping as much so he spent a lot of
his time chewing the fat with various people at the Outpost while having
coffee. Elmer will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. Elmer is survived by his loving wife
of 60 years, Thelma; two dear children, David Satterfield and wife Margaret of
Richland and Karen Satterfield of Sunnyside; three special granddaughters,
Rene' Martinez and husband Ramon of Palmer, Alaska, Monica Stanton and husband,
Paul of Grandview, and Nanci Shrauner and fiance' Mike Rushman of Pasco; four
darling great-grandchildren; his faithful companion, Mandi, his dog; and
several nieces and nephews. His parents, four brothers, and five sisters,
precede him in death.
Viewing will be Sunday from noon
until 6 p.m. and Monday, Tuesday &Wednesday from noon until 8:00 p.m. at
the Sunnyside Chapel of Valley Hills Funeral Home. Funeral services will be
held Thursday, August 4, 2005 at 10 a.m. at the Sunnyside Chapel of Valley
