She has been a member of the M. E. church for about twenty years, and although for many years failing health has prevented her attending public worship, she has lived her religion in her home life. A husband and two children, a daughter aged sixteen years and a son aged ten years remain to mourn their loss. The funeral was preached in the home, after which her remains were laid to rest in the Gordon cemetery.
