She had been a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal church of the Methodist Episcopal church for many, many long years, we think since she was eighteen years of age, and died in the full hope of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Her last words were meet me in heaven. The funeral services were conducted from the family home by Rev D. Pruitt and the remains were laid to rest in the Memory cemetery. A beautiful white casket was used, emblematical of the pure and spotless life she had lived, six of her sons, acting as pall bearers, tenderly carried her body to its last resting place.
