On the ninth day of October 1926, little twin daughters, Edna Mae and Ella Louise, came to gladden the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Bunnell. They were tenderly cared for, and gave promise of developing into strong and healthy children. While Edna Mae had always been the smaller of the two, yet she had kept pace with her twin and had gained in proportion.

However, without any warning whatever, the angel of Death entered the home and quietly took the spirit of Edna Mae. She passed so suddenly and quietly that it was almost impossible to believe that she had died. Her little life of three months, two weeks and one day was short, but she had lived long enough to endear herself to those who tenderly care for her.

Besides her twin sister, she leaves another sister, Mildred Arlene, and her parents.

The family has the sympathy of the entire community. Funeral services were held at the home Tuesday afternoon at two o’clock, conducted by Rev. W. J. Fowler. Mrs. C. H. Manatt and Mrs. C. B. Reed furnished the music.
