Lyons Herald, 17 Jan 1907

Mary L. Ford was born in Jefferson county, New York, November 8, 1838, and died 
January 10, 1907, aged 68 years, 2 months and 2 days.  She moved with her 
parents to Michigan when about 11 years of age and settled near Lowell, Kent 
county, where she lived thirteen years.  She was united in marriage to Wm. 
Huston July 23, 1863, at Lowell.  They lived in Lyons about 41 years.  Six 
children were born to them, four of whom have preceded her to the other shore.  
She is survived by her husband, a brother and two daughters, Mrs. Minnie Gates 
of Sheridan, and Vernie Huston who remained at home and gave her constant care 
and attention to the last.

About 37 years ago she experienced a change of heart and gave up all for her 
Savior.  There being no church of her choice in Lyons, she did not unite with 
any, but cheerfully walked in the light.  She was a dutiful wife, a loving 
mother and a kind neighbor.

The funeral was held Monday from the home of H.C. Hammon, Rev. H.E. Wylie 
officiating. The music was furnished by Mrs. Coon and Mrs. Baker and Messrs. 
Balch and Hale.  The pall-bearers were Daniel Curtis, Theo. King, F.T. Gleason 
and J.P. Brown.
