"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 145, No 16, p 263, Nov. 15, 1948.
Sadie Gertrude Whitford, daughter of Alonzo Harris and Clara Leonard King, was born in Alfred, October 22, 1875, and died at the family home in Adams, N. Y., October 11, 1948.
On February 12, 1913, she was married to N. George Whitford of Adams. The ceremony was performed in Durhamville by Rev. E. A. Witter.
After their marriage she united with the Adams Center Seventh Day Baptist Church, to which she remained very loyal to the end. She was an efficient teacher of the "Good Will" class and was very capable in any capacity in which she was privileged to serve.
She bore her illness with remarkable patience, assuring her family and friends that "it is all right." When she realized that she had but a few more days, she gave her pastor a note containing Scripture and all other instructions for the funeral, and expressed joy that she could go back to the Church once more.
She is survived by her husband and son, Nathan H.; her daughter-in-law Rosalind; two sisters, Mrs. Helen Clark of Scotia, Mrs. Bessie Beggs of Durhamville; and one brother, Willard C. King of Durhamville.
Funeral services were held October 14, at 2 p.m., in the Adams Center Church, conducted by her pastor, Rev. Emmett H. Bottoms. Interment was in the Union Cemetery at Adams Center.
