"The Roanoke Leader" - May 6, 1925:
MRS. M.P. PITTMAN DIED SUDDENLY ON THURSDAY
Mrs. Martin P. Pittman died shortly after midnight last Thursday morning at her home two miles north of town. She suffered an attack of heart trouble the day before but her death came unexpectedly. Her husband the late Hon. M.P. Pittman, one of the most honored citizens of the county in his day, died just one year and two weeks before. Mrs. Laura Stephens, the only surviving member of the family had been making her home with the mother since the death of the husband and father and made the former's last days as comfortable as possible. But it was the oft expressed wish of Mrs. Pittman that she might be called to the other home to join the husband to whom she was devoted through the long years of their married life. Mrs. Pittman lacked only a few days of being 81 years of age. She was a charter member of the Lebanon Christian church, which was organized before the Civil War. Funeral services were held there Friday afternoon, conducted by Elders O.A. Moore and A.P. Hodges, in the presence of a large company of friends and neighbors.
