OBITUARY
Viola Frances Childers was born August 31st, 1888, near Washington, Kansas, and died in Enid, Okla., February 27, 1915, aged 26 years, 5 months, and 27 days.
When she was six years of age, her parents moved to Oklahoma, settling on a farm four and a half miles northeast of Hunter. At the age of 14, she united with the church, and despite her years of suffering, she was always patient and cheerful. In January, 1903, she was stricken with rheumatism, from which she was never able to obtain relief.
For several years, she, with her mother and brother, Will, lived in Hunter, where she had many friends and acquaintances, but during the past three years, their home has been in Enid.
She leaves a mother and six brothers, all of whom were at the bedside during the last hours, except one, Arthur, who arrived in time for the funeral. Viola was an only daughter and the youngest child. The brothers are: Will of Enid; Arthur of Littlefield, Tex.; Lester of Fairbury, Nebr.; James of Hunter; Robert of Southwest City, Mo.; Charles of Enid.
The funeral services were held in the Christian church in Hunter, Rev. C.C. Taylor preaching the sermon and special music furnished by Mr. Cassity, evangelistic singer, Mesdames Moffett and McCrace, and Rev. Taylor, all of Enid. Ethel Benson Smith, Mattie Dalrymple Jackson, Alda Lounsbury Wilson, Lucy Lounsbury Lewis, Edith Haskins Dixon and Madge Lower Davison, old schoolmates of Viola, acted as honorary pallbearers. The floral offerings were many and beautiful.
Interment was made in the Hunter cemetery, where her father lies buried.
