At the age of sixteen, Mrs. Woods was converted in a meeting at Bethel Chapel, conducted by Bro. Quick and was ever inspired by that ever present faith in Christ.

Her devoted husband and children have been her constant comfort and joy. Faithful to their service of love they were always solicitous for her every comfort and need. She was a quiet spoken woman. Industrious to a fault whose chief aim in life was to serve her family and others in need of care. She was always solicitous for others in times of sickness or trouble or need. Besides all this she was a loving mother, affectionate wife and a true friend. The sorrow in our knowing that her life has been well lived and that there is a loving and merciful God guiding our destinies and the hope, prompted by faith, that we shall meet again.
A precious one from us has gone,
The voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
which never can be filled.
Funeral services were conducted from Bethel Chapel Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock by the Rev. John W. McKee. interment was made in Bethel Chapel cemetery.
