She taught in the rural schools and was a very proficient teacher. She was a member of the Baptist Church and lived a devoted Christian life. She let her light shine daily. She was always kind and loving to all and always wore a smile. She was patient through her long illness. It not being my opportunity to be at her bedside, which I regret but I was always with her in prayer.She was joined in wedlock to Evert Thornton and to this union were born three daughters and three sons. Dearest sister how we loved her and her loss we deeply feel, but the memory of her love and kindness to me will always be so real.
