MRS. MARY T. TURNER
The funeral for Mrs. Mary T. Turner was largely attended Tuesday at 2:00 o'clock from the South Fairview church, when many friends paid their last tribute of love and respect to her memory.
Among the lovely floral tokens was the family piece inscribed, "Mother." A token for her stepmother, Mrs. E. J. Turner and four children. Other beautiful sprays from Mr. and Mrs. Ray Beaman and family, Mr. and Mrs. Verne Cloyd, Fairview Ladies Aid, Friendly Bible Class of the Baptist church and Bethel community.
The sacred hymns, "Does Jesus Care," and "Beautiful Isle" were sweetly sang by Mrs. W. S. Miller, Mrs. Ed Holt, C.O. Cowan and Bob Read, accompanied by Mrs. Fleta Stroud. Rev. Cooprider, accompanied by Mrs. McKean, sang the solo, "No Night There."
Rev. Cooprider of the Bronson M.E. church conducted very impressive services. He read passages of Scripture and gave comfort in prayer. He used for his text: "Let not your heart be troubled, God shall wipe away all tears for their eyes." Here we have sorrow and tribulations, but all will be forgotten in the "House of Many Mansions" where God shall wipe away all our tears. He gave a fitting tribute to this good Christian mother, quiet and serene; a lover of her home and children.
Burial was in the Hatch cemetery, beside her husband.
Pallbears were Mrs. Verne Cloyd, Mrs. Addie Perry, Mrs. Edith Pool, Mrs. Olive Brown, Mrs. Lee Smith and Mrs. Be__Wilson.
Mary Thompson Turner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs John Turner, was born in Illinois, January 24, 1862; passed away August 20, 1934, being at the time of her death 72 years, six months and 27 days of age.
She came to Kansas with her parents when three years of age. She was converted when a young lady of 16 years and by her life her, her_____ and favorite passages of Scripture, she was a Child of the King.
She was united in marriage to O. A. Turner April 5, 1883, he having preceded her in death 3 years.
She is survived by four children, Mrs. Henry Cady, Bronson; Alva and Ben Turner, Uniontown; and Mrs. Kenneth Keith, Bronson. Joseph Edward died in infancy; 12 grand children, one sister, Mrs. Anna Ard, Elsmore; one brother W. T. Turner, Illiopolis, Ills; a step-mother Mrs. E. J. Turner, Uniontown; three half sisters, Mrs. J. E. Nichols, Mrs. Odie, Pool, Bronson; Mrs. Ray Beaman, Uniontown; one half-brother, Otto T. Turner, Kiowa, Kans.; and a host of other relatives and friends.
Her life had held much stress and storm.
But in this comfort we may share
When death o'ertakes this earthly form.
We just live through free from care.
But when thus changed we then shall know
Some things while here we could not see--
There there the spirit-one may grow
To be what she had longed to be.
So folded hands across the breast,
Lift at end; it tasks all done,
In death a symbol of rest
Though endless life has just begun,
So don't think your loved one dead,
Just gone ahead a little while--
Or look at death with chilly dread--
Some day she'll greet you with a smile.
