Both sons preceded her in death, Walter in the year 1932 at the age of thirty-three years and Ira in the year 1912 at the age of five years and five months.
She came to Clark county with her family in the year 1897.
He life was dedicated to Christ at an early age, and after moving here united with the St. Paul M. E. church, but later moved her membership to the Island Grove Baptist church where she remained a faithful member and always attended services when possible.
She was a good neighbor, faithful wife, kind and loving mother and will be greatly missed by all her many friends and relatives.
She bore her illness with patience despite much suffering and always looked on the bright side and that tomorrow or next week she would be better. But God in His infinite mercy saw fit to call her home.
Those left to mourn her going are a grief-stricken husband, two daughters, one daughter-in-law, eleven grandchildren, five great grandchildren and a host of other relatives and friends.
Funeral services were held from the St. Paul M. E. church on Thursday September 26, 1940, with Elder W. A. Fuson officiating. Burial was in St. Paul cemetery.
