"Mrs. Julia Copeland Dies at Boonville, Funeral Services Were Held This Afternoon at the Sweeney Funeral Home.

"Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at the Sweeney Funeral Home for Mrs. Julia Ann Copeland, 84, who died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. F. Auer at Boonville Saturday afternoon after an illness of about six months. Burial was in the Ridge Park Cemetery with the Rev. Ferguson in charge of the final services.
"Julia Ann Cary was born in Cumberland County, Ky., on Sept 27, 1856, the daughter of William and Caroline Elizabeth Cary. While still a small girl, she came to Missouri with her mother, two sisters and a brother. The family located near the Shackelford neighborhood.
" On July 26, 1876, she was married to Allen K. Walker and the couple lived on his farm in Pettis County until his death in 1880. To this union were born three children, Mrs. Edna Chappell of Kansas City, and Mrs. Frank Auer and Mr. A. J. Walker, both of Boonville.
"Following her husband's death, Mrs. Copeland returned to Saline County where she lived with her mother until her marriage to James S. Copeland, June 7, 1885. To that union seven childdren were born, Mrs. Edward Staub, of Marshall; Mrs. Joe Baker, Robert, Herbert, and Jesse, all of Miami and Joe Copeland of near Slater.
"Mrs. Copeland moved to Kansas City in 1936, after the death of her husband Oct. 10, 1935, where she lived with her daughter Mrs. Edna Chappell, until just a few weeks ago when she was brought to Boonville.
"She has been a member of the Baptist Church since childhood.
"Twenty-two grandchildren and twelve great-grandchilddren survive besides the members of the family mentioned.
"The life of a fine woman and a wonderful mother is her record. No mother had amore sacred regard for the life and welfare of her children. Her unselfish devotion to her children and only exceeded by her happiness in training them for the highest ideals of life.
"She was long spared the hand of death and lived a full span of years to see her children take their rightful place in the work and activities of their respective communities.
"The record of her life has beentwined about the hearts of the children she leaves––the friendliness of her soul will always cause a glow of warmth in the hearts of her many friends.
"She leaves a life of mortality for the greater service of immortality. Only those with who she has come in contact have realized the all-inclusive warmth of her heart and the fineness of her life.
"The acking void left by her absence is filled with the record of her good deeds--in every wonderful definition of the word, she was a mother"
"Asleep in Jeasus! Oh how sweet
To be for such a slumber meet!
With holy confindence to sing.
That death has lost its venomed sting." "
