Funeral services for Mrs. B. G. O'Berry, mother of Judge B. G. O'Berry of this city were held last Friday at 8 o'clock at the family residence in Willacoochee. The services were conducted by Rev. Jenkins, pastor of the Baptist church of Willacoochee, assisted by Rev. Moody Booth of the Methodist church, and Rev. Lucious Roebuck of the Cordele Baptist church. Beautiful floral offerings were in evidence, and scores of out of town friends and relatives gathered to pay their last respects. Interment followed in the Willacoochee cemetery.
Mrs. O'Berry is survived by her husband, B. G. O'Berry, Sr., of Willacoochee, three sons, Judge B. G. O'Berry of Douglas, W. C. O'Berry and J. A. O'Berry, both of Willacoochee, Mrs. B. O. Quillian, a niece, of this city, and Mrs. Leola M. O'Berry, a sister-in-law, of Douglas also survive. Mrs. O'Berry, a native of Pulaski county, had spent the greater part of her married life in Willacoochee, where she was a leader in the social and civic affairs of the town. She was a staunch member of the Baptist church, and a charter member of the Woman's Club. Her death, coming suddenly as it did, was a shock to the entire community, and her passing brings sorrow to a host of friends and loved ones who have been so closely associated with her during the past years. Judge O'Berry and Mrs. B. O. Quillian went immediately to Willacoochee and are, at present, there with Mr. O'Berry, Sr.
