The deceased was born October 13, 1891, and died June 14, 1917, making her stay on earth 25 years, 8 months and 1 day. She was a kind and loving mother. She left a husband and two children, the older one about two years old and the little boy about two months old. She was loved by all who knew her. She has en tered that sweet heaven of eternal rest to be with her dear beloved one and the redeemed of God.
