Pever eldest child in a family of seven and passed away at 8:30 am., August 19, 1971, enroute to the Miami Baptist Hospital after a sudden seizure, age 98 years, 9 months and two days. In 1881 she moved with her parents to a farm near Independence, Kas., and later into Independence where she engaged in dressmaking until the family moved to Bartlett in 1891 and she clerked in her father's general merchandise store until her marriage to John M.
