Your family was heart broken when they lost you.
Corwin
Allie Venicia Dye, eldest child of T. A. and Retta Dye, was born near Bible Grove, Scotland County, Mo., October 27, 1894, and died, after a lingering illness of three months, in Keokuk, Iowa, June 30, 1919, at the age of 24 years, 3 months, 3 days.
On Dec. 31, 1913 she was united in marriage to Augustus O. Corwin. To this happy union one daughter, Violet Ethel, was born, but the little one passed away on the day of her birth. Allie was of such a sunny disposition that all who knew her loved her. She was a regular attendant at Bible school and church, and at the bedside of the sick of the community, and from these places she will be greatly missed.
Her home was one of happiness and she ruled with the dignity and love of a queen. In 1909 she united with the Christian church at Bible Grove, under the preaching of the writer of these notes, and from the day she started on her Christian life, till she reached the Jordan of death, she lived true to her profession.
She leaves to mourn for her a husband, father, mother, two sisters, six brothers, many other relatives and a host of friends.
The funeral services were held at the old home church in the presence of hundreds of sympathizing friends. The sermon by the writer, while the music was furnished by singers form Antioch and Memphis, Brother G. L. Eaton of Memphis sang a solo, “That Beautiful Dream,” by Shaw, and then assisted at the grave.
