She was 35 years, 2 months and 5 days old. She was married to D. C. Waldrop, December 23, 1904. To this union were born eight children, six of whom survive her, three daughters, three sons, also her husband, her mother and a host of relatives and friends. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. A. B. Robertson and Rev. T. G. Burgess and her remains were laid to rest in Bethany cemetery. Her sudden death was not only a shock to this community but to the entire country. Effie will not only be missed by the family but also by her friends and relatives who are not to be numbered, for to know her was to love her. It is sad to think of her going away and we wonder why but cannot understand. In years to come, however, we shall continue to look back on her life and think of it as an example for others to follow. May God's spirit fill the vacancy of that home and comfort the bereaved relatives that still remain. Bessie Colley, Levis Hood.
