Helen Marr (Kenyon) Woods
The Oswego Daily Palladium, Wednesday, April 19, 1893
Mrs. George W. Woods.
In the death of Mrs. Woods, Oswego loses a prominent and well-known lady. Ever kind and generous, she made friends of all with whom she came in contact. In fact, the remark was common among her friends and acquaintances, which can not be said of many, "She never had an enemy." With a smile and a generous recognition for everybody, her goodness shone as the prominent feature of her character.
Mrs. Woods has been, for the past eighteen months, a great sufferer but she bore the pain and distress with a patience that was remarkable. so resigned was she amid all her suffering that at times she even engaged in sallies of wit. Mrs. Woods was treated by the best medical talent of Syracuse and Boston, but all to no avail; the fatal ailment had done its work.
Mrs. Woods was married to her well-known husband, George W. Woods, who survives her, March, 1856. They had two sons, both of whom are living, Harry N. Woods and Samuel Woods.
Mrs. Woods's maiden name was Helen M. Kenyon. She was born March 25th 1834. Three brothers survive her, one being our well-known townsman, L. L. Kenyon, Marvin Kenyon, residing in Illinois, and William R. Kenyon, residing in Butte City, Montana. Mrs. Woods was laid to rest at Riverside cemetery on March 19th, and counting her many generous and noble impulses, whilst here, it may of a truth be said of her— Resurgam. J.W.H.
