Mrs. Valle Parks, after a lingering illness, and months of suffering, patiently borne, died at her home in this city at an early hour Tuesday morning. Two daughters, Mrs. D.R. Patterson and Mrs. May Hayes, and her son, William, were at her bedside when the end came.
Funeral services were conducted at the Methodist Church Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock by Rev. Ward M. Baker, assisted by Rev. B.A. Pugh, of the Baptist Church. Interment followed at the city cemetery. The floral offerings were very beautiful.
Corvallia May Sands was born in LaClede, Linn County, Mo., October 10, 1863, the daughter of Dr. James R. Sands and Louisa Ann (Botts) Sands. The father, Dr. Sands, died in Salisbury (June 1, 1877, and the mother, in Keytesville, October 31, 1881.) The days of the daughter were 52 years, 5 months and 21 days.
She was married January 4, 1882, in Salisbury, to Nathaniel B. Parks. Their children were two daughters, Roberta Louise and Corvallie May, and one son, William Jordan Parks, who survive and were present to give loving administrations to their precious mother in her last hours and who together mourn her decease. Mr. Parks died September 27, 1890, and for more than twenty-five years this good woman bore the burdens of widowhood. She came to her rest on the anniversary of her marriage, after the passage of thirty-three years.
She united with the Methodist church in Salisbury in young womanhood and walked with the Lord in the midst of her home, finding great comfort in the promise as the troubles of life passed over her.
She has four sisters who passed away years ago, and one sister who was to her almost as a daughter, Mrs. Roscoe Tedford of San Francisco, who was with her at the end and mourns one who loved her so well and so long.
