Her funeral was held last Friday afternoon at the Baptist church, the Rev. A.S. Cross officiating. She was laid to rest in the Osage cemetery beside her sister, who preceded her in death September 19, 1900. She leaves to mourn her untimely passing, her grief-stricken young husband, her parents and one sister,Goldie Bement, besides other relatives.
