LAURENS, March 21 – (Special) – It was indeed a great shock to the town and community which was caused by the sudden death of Mrs. Mary J. McKee, which occurred at her home here on Friday, March 16. She was 64 years of age and was in apparently good health until stricken with an attack of heart failure which lasted only a few moments.
The funeral services were held on Saturday, conducted by her pastor Rev. J. A. Martin, assisted by Rev. W. M. Creamer. Interment took place in Poplar Springs cemetery, near Ware Shoals.
Mrs. McKee was widely known here and else where, having resided here for a number of years. She was held in high esteem by those who knew her. She was of a noble Christian character, a consistent member of the Baptist church for a long number of years. She was always ready to lend a helping hand, and was especially a much devoted and faithful mother and grandmother.
Mrs. McKee was preceded to the grave twenty-five years by her husband, A. L. McKee.
The following children survive her: T. E. McKee, of Mill Spring, N.C; J. D. McKee, of Greenwood; J. A. McKee, of Laurens; Mrs. N. H. Hill, Gray Court; Mrs. G. H. (Unreadable), of Laurens; Mrs. C. W. Wilson, Spartanburg; Mrs. R. L. Patton, Ninety Six; and Mrs. J. C. Thomas, Laurens.
