The children in her music classes grieve In her death and remember her for her cheery disposition. She was an inspiring woman. Many of us have received Inspiration from ber. She sang many times when her hearers wept and wondered how she could sinK. She inspired many to try and sing as she did even when loaded down with sorrows." Rev. Lambeth said, "She was dem ocratic. She has sung at many fu nerals and in this way has brougl t comfort to many people of the city. She sang at the funerals of the rich and she sang at the funerals of the poor even when there were no floral offerings, Mrs. Kephart ; was always glad to give one or two hours of her time for this purpose." "Mrs. Kephart was a cosmopolitan woman. Technically she was a Meth odist but she took part at times In all the churches of the city. She wag ever willing to do her bit In public patriotic meetings and other meet ings of public interest. In ber death High Point loses a consecrated voice and tie community is bereft." Rev. Lambeth told of a letter that bad come since her death telling of the love of the people in her old home, Columbia, Pennsylvania, for Mrs. Kephart and expressing their grief at her death. Similar letters had been received from Raleigh and Asbboro where she had lived at dif ferent times. He said,.
