She was united in marriage with John Hissom in 1871 and lived in Ohio but soon after the death of her husband she moved to Tulsa, Okla., where she had since made her home.
Mother Hissom was a member of the Second Presbyterian Church of Tulsa, and was ever a devout Christian. She leaves to mourn her loss two sons, Elmer of Tulsa and Hugh S. of Skiatook, Okla.; two daughters, Mrs. Cora H. Cameron who lived with her and Mrs. E.J. Barnes of Fort Collins, Colorado; one sister, Mrs. Roberta Folger of Hanover, OH.; one brother, Mr. Phillip Hall of Graysville, Ohio; two nieces whom she had raised from childhood, Mrs. Charles Shidell of Eldorado, Kansas and Mrs. Harry Sellers of Versailes, Pennsylvania; many other relatives and a host of loving friends.
Mrs. Hissom had been failing for the past three months but only took to her bed four days before her death. All four of her children and one niece and a few close friends were at her bedside when she passed quietly into the world beyond. The floral offerings were many and very beautiful.
