BERTA ERNEST PASSES AT HER BREMEN, GA. HOME Mrs. Berta Ernest, one of Bremen's most beloved ladies, passed quietly away at her home in that city on Thursday night, Oct. 28 after an illness of several weeks. Only recently, Mrs. Ernest retired as telephone operator at the Bremen exchange after serving the people of that section faithfully and efficiently for over a quarter of a century. While she had been in declining health for several months past, she fought bravely and did not take to her bed until a short while before her death. "Mrs. Berta" was widely known in this section and her passing has caused widespread sorrow. She was a christian of the very highest type and was always ready, willing and anxious to assist those less fortunate than herself. She was a member of the Bremen Methodist church and funeral services were held at the city auditorium Saturday afternoon to accommodate the large number of people that gathered to pay their last tribute to her. Mrs. Earnest is survived by one daughter Miss Fern Ernest and an adopted daughter Miss Dorothy Ernest; one sister, Mrs. Anna Dodson of Villa Rica, Ga. and three brothers, L.D. Gable of Fort Worth, Texas; J.F. Gable of Carrollton, Ga., and J.J. Gable of Cullman, Ala., and a host of relatives and friends.
