She stepped on the bumper of her father's auto to ride a short distance to her uncle's house where she was visiting; she was holding onto the ornament on the radiator cap when it broke off. She fell backwards and the full length of the car passed over her body. She was rushed to the hospital in Anniston and later removed to Atlanta where she succumbed. Funeral services were held last Friday at Peachtree Baptist church and interment was in East View cemetery. Surviving are her father J.L. McDowell, three brothers, five sisters, all of Atlanta and a host of relatives and friends in Alabama and Georgia. Pallbearers were Paul Wells, Orvel Johnson, Leo Wells, Lester Johnson, Guy Greene and Eston Johnson. Lurlene's mother passed on just six weeks ago and I will say to the bereaved ones, weep not; it is hard to give her up so soon after the loving mother's death, but you have the sweet assurance that she is now rejoicing with mother and there will never be an separation any more. Just try to live so as to meet them one sweet day. A friend.
