Her birth is recorded as January 16, 1871 so the tombstone date is incorrect. https://archives.novascotia.ca/vital-statistics/birth/?ID=76545 Contributor: Rod Corkum Mrs. Flora Corkum Feltzen South mourns the loss of one of its most highly respected citizens, Mrs. Flora Corkum, widow of Arthur Corkum, removed by death on Wednesday of last week. Mrs. Corkum had been in poor health for some time and gradually weakening, and death came not unexpectedly. She was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Henry Spindler of Feltzen, born to them 77 years ago. She was well-known in surrounding districts, where she had many friends, who are saddened by her death. Her mother was Elizabeth Cook , a sister of the late Thomas Cook of Riverport, Jeffrey and Elkanah Cook of Rose Bay. She kept the post office at Feltzen for many years, ministering to the public in a most kindly and gracious manner. She had a family of five, three sons and two daughters, of whom three survive, Perry of Montreal, Mark, at home, and Nina, Mrs. D.D. Innes, Liverpool. About three years ago she was deeply grieved by the sudden death of a son, Captain Foster Corkum of Lunenburg, and less than a year ago, the sudden death of her older daughter, Beatrice, Mrs. Orlean Zinck, came as a great shock to the aged mother. She was a devoted member and worker of the United Church at Feltzen until infirmity forced her to resign all leadership, having its welfare constantly at heart. Her husband's death occurred several years ago and also predeceasing her were brothers, Eldridge Spindler, of Lunenburg; Gordon, Albert and Thomas; and one sister, Arabelle. The funeral was held from the church at Feltzen on Friday ,Rev. J. Brooks, Riverport Charge, conducting the service. Mr. Brooks based his thoughts on the words spoken by the Master, and recorded in John's gospel, "What I do thou knowest not now, but thou shalt know hereafter." Favourite hymns of the deceased were sung by the choir, "All The Way my Saviour Leads Me," "Safe in the Arms of Jesus," and "Forever With the Lord." Interment was made in the family plot beside her husband and daughter. Pall-bearers were Charles Zellars, Albert Spindler, Milledge Corkum, and Ammon Corkum. With thanks to Rosemary Rafuse and Ron Zinck.
