She was a lover of flowers--her favorites roses and lillies were always found in abundance in her garden. She was a good neighbor, and gave liberally of her material means toward the support of the church.
Surviving with the above named children are two sisters, Mrs Margaret Adams of Loogootee and Mrs. Alice Adams of Monroe City, Ind., together with 16 grand-children and two great grand-children.
