Ionia Standard, 18 Oct 1911

Mrs. Katherine Scott Myers was born in Keene, Ionia Co., Mich., July 26, 1875, 
and passed away very suddenly on the evening of October 1, 1911.  

Her early life was spent in Fairplain, Montcalm Co., where she was a teacher in 
the public schools.  At the age of nineteen years, she was converted and untied 
with the Methodist church under the pastorate of Rev. Wm .Judd, becoming an 
active worker in the Epworth League and a member of the church choir.

On December 30, 1903, she was united in marriage to William J. Myers, of Ionia, 
and thereafter resided on their farm near Ionia, excepting fifteen months which 
were spent in California and other Western states.

Her health was never firm, but she was always cheerful, trials and suffering 
drawing her ever closer to God, whom she trusted as a child trusts a loving 
parent.  She grew in grace until the last, and when the end came she was 
ready.  Since for her to live was Christ, to die was gain.

She leaves to mourn her death a husband, an aged mother, Mrs. Harriet E. Scott 
of Miller, Mich., four sisters, one brother and a host of loving friends and 
relatives.

Rev. M. M. Callen, pastor of the M.E. church, Ionia, conducted the funeral 
service from the home, where a large and sympathetic concourse of friends and 
relatives had gathered, and she was laid to rest in Orleans cemetery.
