During the past twenty years she has lived with her children. She united with her children. She united with the Methodist church during her early womanhood and has always been a devoted wife and mother and her constant care was the welfare of someone in need.
She braved the frontier days, facing untold hardships for the protection of her home.
She is gone; but her loving manner, her generous devotion and the memory of her old fashioned home making lingers with us.

Mother's gone but memory lingers
And we see her face the while;
As it beams from Heaven's window.
With a glad eternal smile.
Many things in life once valued,
Now by time have slipped away;
But the memory of Mother
In our hearts will always stay.

Funeral services were conducted at the home Sunday at eleven o'clock by Rev. V. V. Whitsitt and interment was made in Price cemetery.
CARD OF THANKS
