She was a "two star mother" in the Second World War, displaying her silken banner proudly on her door. Ruth Brown Egan

Suggested edit: Coincidentally, there is a cemetery called Glendale in Snyder County, Pennsylvania in the county seat of Middleburg. That is the place that contains the Township where Shade Mountain is located where her Felton ancestors left from to come to Hagerstown, Indiana, and then to Henry and Delaware Counties where Susie was born.
