generosity. Her honest and caring attitude extended to everyone she met. She 
opened her heart to all with kind words and a sincere interest in their well-
being. Mrs. Farrar's loving character and enduring faith will ensure she is 
remembered by the many people she touched throughout her life. She was an 
honorable business woman, a devoted Christian, a loving mother, and an 
upstanding community member. Her loss will be deeply mourned.

Mrs. Farrar was preceded in death by her parents, George and Alene Burson; her 
husband, Paul F. Farrar; a son, Wendell Scott Farrar; and a grandson, Matthew 
Kye Farrar.

She is survived by three children, Clyde "Bubba" Farrar of Farmerville, Donna

Farmerville; sister, Patricia Deforest; grandchildren, Shane, Brandon, Brent, 
April, Shannon, Bradley, and Wendy; and 13 great-grandchildren.

In keeping with Mrs. Farrar's giving spirit, the family asks you to donate 
memorials to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in lieu of flowers. The
