(PROBABLY) THE ARMSTRONG JOURNAL, APR 1904

Death of Mrs. T. O. Shively

Tammie O. Shively, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius B. Canon was born January 11, 1854, in Sullivan County, N.Y. and died in Armstrong, Iowa, April 14, 1904. Her parents came west and settled in Ogle County, Illinois, where deceased was married in 1878 to Daniel Shively. They moved to Tama County, Iowa, then to Nebraska and finally settled in Shanon County, Missouri. Her husband died there April 2, 1899 and the following year she came to Emmet County where she resided until her death. Five children and six brothers and sisters survive to mourn her early demise. The children are O.L., Gertrude, Florence, and Guy Shively and Mrs. Ed. H. Canfield. The brothers and sisters I.H., C.B., G.W., B.J., A.P. and Winnifred Canon. Deceased was not ill more than a week and her death is supposed to be due to apoplexy. Funeral services will be held tomorrow morning at 10:30 o'clock at the M.E. Church conducted by Rev. T.A. Ambler and the members of the local Rebecca Lodge.

Thus the Angel of death again stepped into our midst and selected and removed there from another neighbor, another friend, another kind sister, another loving and affectionate mother, and conveyed her from this vale of woe to her place of eternal rest, where there are no shadows or sorrows, no clouds threatening at any moment to destroy our happiness, but where the light of eternal dawn shall shine upon her. For we are according to His promise to look for new heavens and new refuge wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Another grave in the cemetery, to remind the weeping members of her beloved family that she is not dead, but only gone before, to the land where we never say good-bye, preparing to set the golden gates of heaven ajar, for those who are sure to follow.
