She was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal Church in early childhood and has lived a consistent Christian life. She was always very much interested in the activities of the Church. She was a great Bible student and had read the Bible through many times.
She is survived by her husband, two sons, and one sister. She will be greatly missed from her place in the church and Sunday school as well as in the community. She was a kind and loving wife and mother and many will mourn her loss.
