Page Harris, and three daughters, Agnes Reese Harris, Jesse Page (Boyd) and Helen E. (Owens). She is in the cemetery records as "Dr. F. R. Harris Wife" Her obituary referred to her in the same way. Written by L. W. Gerringer, Pastor, in part it read: Mrs. Fletcher R. Harris, widow of the late Dr. Fletcher R. Harris of Henderson, passed from earthly activities to her heavenly reward February 24, 1934. She had been seriously ill for the past several weeks, suffering with a complication of diseases, and had been a coma more or less for the last two weeks; therefore her death was not unexpected. Funeral services were conducted from the Methodist Protestant church Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock by the pastor, assisted by Rev. D. E. Barnhardt, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, South. Interment was the Elmwood cemetery where she was laid to rest beside her husband who had preceded her by six months lacking three days. Mrs. Harris was the daughter of Rev. Jesse H. Page, a prominent Methodist minister, and Martha E. Willis. She was survived by a brother F. L. Page and three sisters, Anne M. Page, Mrs. L. R. Gooch and Mrs. Ben Dunlap. Her death leaves, not only her immediate relatives, but a large host of friends with a sense of great loss. She was interested in the better and finer things of life. Those who knew her well recall her intense interest in and profound love for music. In her young womanhood, she took private lessons in piano and organ under Professor Lineback of Salem N.C. Later she studied music at a girls' school in Asheville. Some years ago she organized a Choral Society in Henderson and directed it with marked success. Two annual concerts given by the Choral Club under her direction were considered perhaps the most outstanding musical events that have taken place in Henderson. From the Methodist Episcopal church, she transferred her membership to the Henderson Methodist Protestant church 47 years ago. She manifested a deep interest in all the activities of the church, especially giving her services to the choir and the women's activities. For many years she was director of the church choir and at the time of her death she was treasurer of the Woman's Auxiliary. She expressed the wish that she might be active in service to the end, and she almost, if not altogether, had her wish, for just before her last illness she was in her accustomed pew at the church. Two years ago she brought the A Capella Choir of High Point Collge in the local church to the delight of music lovers... Mrs. Harris was also intensely interested in the civic and social affairs of the community. For many years she was president of the local W.C.T.U., and I understand she was instrumental in starting the Boy Scout movement in Henderson. She organized the Civic League which developed into the Henderson Woman's Club of which she was one time president and of which she was later made honorary president for life. She was also a charter member of the Women's Tuesday Club...
