Her obituary was published by the Daily Advocate (Victoria, Texas) on Thursday, 10 June 1897 (page 4, column 1):
Death of Mrs. Mary C. Gano.
Died at Beulah Land, near Nursery, Texas, at 1 o'clock a.m. June 8,1897, Mrs. Mary C. Gano, wife of Col. John A. Gano, of Nursery.
Mrs. Gano was born in Fayette conn, Ky., June 29, 1850. She became an earnest Christian at the early age of 13, and adorned her profession to the end of her life. He was married to Col. Gano May 1, 1867, and came with him to Taylor, Texas, in 1877, where they lived till 1861.
She was long in feeble health, and with her husband traveled extensively, in hope of restoration. After trying every promising climate of the continent, they located at Nursery in December, 1894. Our climate seemed to favor her.
She has been the affectionate companion of a loving husband, the light of one of our most pleasant homes, a careful mother and an exemplary associate with all who were so fortunate as to be thrown into social relationship with her.
For some months she had suffered from some mysterious malady that baffled the skill of the medical profession. She had continually and gradually declined under its power, in spite of all that loving kindness, care and medical attention could do, until she quietly breathed her last on Tuesday morning, surrounded by the loved and loving ones of her household. She leaves a kind husband, a sister and eight children to mourn—not for her—but for their own loss, which we are sure is her unspeakable gain, She was buried in the Mission Valley cemetery.
