ANNIE GARNER PINDER
August 24, 1967 Winn Parish Enterprise-News American

In Memoriam

Mrs. Annie Garner Pinder, native of the Wheeling Community, died of a heart
attack in her home in Starks, La., at the age of 74, after attaining her
lifelong desire of a college degree at the age of 70 from McNeese State
College.  Her determination to acquire a college degree after she had reared
her family, made her the topic of numerous magazine articles, which quoted her
as saying, "I've stayed on the ranch 40 years.  I figure I can take off two
days a week to put part of my time in the classroom"...."My days are about
past, but I'll be satisfied if I can die with a college degree."

Besides her immediate family, Mrs. Pinder leaves one sister, Mrs. Josie Lee
Fowler of Montgomery.  Mrs. DeLea Lonadier of Wheeling is a niece, who
supplied the above information, and there are a number of nieces and nephews
in this area.
