********************************************************
From Daughter, Grace:

"Mom was always working so hard, keeping the house clean and us kids so clean. And we always had good eats. She canned all kinds of things. She died at age 37. I was 17 years old. (Dallas was the first person to be buried in a professionally made coffin in the County. Aunt Lea had taught Grace to make lace, and she had worked for months to make her mom a beautiful slip that had lace at the top and midriff and a four-inch hem of lace. The slip was intended to be Dallas's Christmas present. But she died on December 7. Grace wanted her mother to be buried in the slip and everyone tried to dissuade her from that, but Grace was adamant that inasmuch as she had made it for her Mother, Mamma would wear it! Dallas was buried in a new white silk dress, and the beautiful slip showed its lace through the silk.)"
