Mrs. Gaar's maiden name was Miss Ella Francis Caldwell and in her early childhood she became a Christian and joined the Methodist Protestant Church. She was truly a typical Christian character, being well known in this section of north Louisiana for her acts of kindness in ministering unto others.
Mrs. Gaar's death was the result of high blood pressure, heart trouble, and other maladies. However, she was very active until only a few months before the end came, having attended a series of revival services in a nearby town during the past summer.
After the death of her husband, which occurred in Dodson several years ago, Mrs. Gaar had been residing with her relatives, Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Jameson, after which they made their home in Dubach, for some time, having removed to Chillicothe, Texas, where she lived until she answered the summons and has gone to her reward.
As an evidence of the popularity and esteem in which the deceased was held is the fact that so many very beautiful floral offerings were presented all the way from Chillicothe to their destination, also many were the messages of sympathy and condolence to the bereaved relatives in this sad hour.
The body was followed to its last earthly resting place by a long concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends, thereby paying their last respects to the deceased lady.
The funeral was conducted by the Rev. Slocum, of Jonesboro, pastor of the Nazarene Church. Interment was in the New Hope Cemetery, Wednesday morning, 10 o'clock, January 14, 1925.
Mrs. Gaar at the time of her death was a very devout member of the above named church, her membership having been with the Hudson organization. The Enterprise extends heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved in their bereavement.
