She was united in marriage to Albert Wilson and to this union was born a son. After Albert's death, she was married to Edd Cooper. To this union were born 5 children, of which two preceded her in death. Susie, as she was called by her many friends, was a kind and loving mother, always thinking of her children first. The little children of her community will always have fond memories of her as one who always loved them, and held them dear to her heart. She had a great faith in her God to whom she prayed to give her strength to keep her going until the end. To her children I'm sure she would say, "Don't weep for me, I've been waiting for this call for a long time. Now God has taken me from all the pains and troubles of this world. I'm at rest with the Lord." She will be missed so much by all that knew her. Her sons, Raymond Wilson, Athens, Tenn., Clarence Cooper, Evartts, Ky.
