OBIT:
CURREY
A useful and beautiful life closed with the passing of Mrs. D. Lee Currey on Monday afternoon at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Lexington. She had been ill for about a month, and a week or ten days ago was taken to Lexington to be under the care of specialists, but was not able to overcome the results of complications from which she suffered, and the news of her death was a great sorrow to the whole community. Mrs. Currey was before her marriage Miss Cordelia Taylor, daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. B. F. Taylor, of this place. Reared in the atmosphere of a splendid Christian home Mrs. Currey developed into a fine character, her help and interest in all good movements being given freely and with worthwhile results. She was prominent in church, club and social life of the community, and her wise counsel and active service in every good work will be greatly missed. Her ability and faithfulness to whatever cause she undertook was recognized beyond her local life, for she has been put forward in many lines in state and district church work and the work of the Kentucky Federation of Women's Clubs. At the time of her passing she was chairman of the Legislative committee for the Federation and a member of the State Executive Board.
Her funeral was held at the Baptist church Wednesday morning at 10:30 o'clock, conducted by her pastor, the Rev. C. W. Knight, assisted by a former pastor, Dr. W. M. Woods, of Nashville, Tenn. The burial was in the family plat in Spring Hill Cemetery. She is survived by her husband Judge D. Lee Currey, and two daughters, Mrs. James Farley, Harrodsburg, and Mrs. S. E. Alexander, of Lexington, and a brother, the Rev. John C. Taylor, who lives in California.
