She is survived by one daughter; Mrs. Maude Woodard; one sister Mrs. Ella Nichols of Chester; and one brother; Albert Stockdale of Lime Springs. out of a family of four sisters and two brothers, also four grandchildren and many other relatives and friends who will miss the cheery greeting and warm welcome of “Aunt Carrie” as she was known to many.
