With the passing away of Serna [sic] Thompson on Sixth day morning, the 19th, the Friends meeting and community lost one of its oldest and well-beloved members. Altho she had been very frail for some time, there were no indications that the end was so near until just before her death, and the word that she was gone came as a shock to the community.

The funeral was held first-day afternoon and she was laid to rest in the Friends grave yard.

She leaves her husband, Christian Thompson, six sons and four daughters and their wives and husbands, a number of grandchildren and great grand children and a host of other relatives and friends, all of whom will miss her quiet presence.
