Lois Adeline Covert, wife of Dr. William A. Covert, passed away at her home in this city at 12:15 o'clock last Sunday morning after a sickness of several months of heart trouble. Funeral services were conducted at the M.E. church Monday afternoon in the presence of a large congregation of sorrowing and sympathetic friends. The services were conducted by Rev. W.L. Hatcher and the sermon preached by Rev. William Bentley, who delivered one of the most forceful orations that has ever been heard in our city. A choir rendered several beautiful selections and the casket was covered with a mass of beautiful flowers, attesting the high standing of this splendid lady among a large circle of friends.
Lois Adeline Garner was born in Salem, Mo.,, July 26, 1873, making her age at death 44 years, 11 months and 18 days. She was the daughter of David N. and Lois Garner. Both parents survive her, the mother reaching her bedside before she passed away. She was married to William A. Covert December 26, 1900. No children resulted from this union. She is survived by father and mother, husband, three sisters, Mrs. Nellie B. Lyles, Mrs. Anna G. Covert, Mrs. Mamie Copley, and two brothers, E.H. and Harry Garner.
Mrs. Covert was of kindly and gentle disposition, a woman dearly beloved for her many admirable characteristics. Always thoughtful of neighbors and ready to render any assistance in time of sickness and distress. She and husband lived the quiet home-life together, and the bond that is broken between them is one that will leave him downcast and lonely. May the Father in Heaven whom she loved and served sustain him in his great affliction. She and her sister, Mrs. Anna Covert, were inseparable companions since childhood, sharing together the joys and the troubles of life; to this sister the loss is indeed great. To the lonely husband, to the sorrowing father and mother, and to the bereaved brothers and sisters many friends join with the Herald in extending earnest and sincere sympathy.
The death of this good lady, neighbor and friend is deeply felt by the entire community.
