Much can be said of her goodness both in the church and home. Everyone who knew her soon learned to love her. Most of her life has been spent in this community, until her husband's death in 1937, and no one could wish for a better neighbor, willing at any time to do unto others as she would have others do unto her. She loved the Bible, and asked that the 23rd Psalm be read at her funeral.
