Sprays and clusters of choice and beautiful flowers, with roses and chrysanthemums predominating, bespoke the remembrance of a wide circle of persons by whom Mrs. Webber had been long loved and revered. It was a fragrant and eloquent tribute to one who had contributed during her lifetime much of value to her church, her family, and her community. Associates of earlier days and acquaintances of more recent years came to express their sorrow at the passing of one whose worth was generally recognized and whose influence was a blessing to those upon whom it fell. Dr. Willard K. Spencer, who for years was Mrs. Webber’s spiritual advisor, conducted the service, and he was assisted by Rev. R. E. Karban, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, in which Mrs. Webber had held membership for many years and personal friend, and Dr. Paul L. Stewart, a neighbor. There was no music. Interment took place in Highland Park cemetery. Mrs. Bert Lampkin and Miss Anna Webster were in charge of flowers and the bearers were Montgomery Webster, W. Y. Templeton, William B. Heatlh, C. J. VanReenen, B. R. Ely, and Fred Dunning. Those from out of town here to attend the services were Mr. and Mrs. Richard L. Webber, Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Webber, Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Webber, Mr. and Mrs. Murda Webber, Mr. and Mrs. Don Webber, Mrs. Abby Webber, Joseph T. Webber, and Mr. and Mrs. Larned Webber of Detroit; Mrs. Florence Webber and Miss Louise Webber, of Plymouth; Mr. and Mrs. Lorenzo Webber of Portland; Mrs. Emma Henry and daughters, June and Melba Webber, of Chicago, Mrs. J.
