Ionia Standard, 16 Jan 1914

The funeral of Mrs. Oden Wood was conducted from the Church of Christ Sunday
afternoon, Jan. 11th.  Music was furnished by Mr. Eugene Smith, organist and
Mesdames Phelps and Benedict, vocalists.  Rev. Robert B. Chapman spoke words of
comfort choosing as his text, “Her sun is gone down while it is yet day.”  The
Bethany Circle of which Mrs. Wood was a member, and Mr. Woods class, the Berean
Brotherhood, attended the service in a body.  She was also a member of the
church and spent many years of faithful service in Sunday school and Endeavor
work.  The large number of friends present and the profusion of flowers offered
by them testified to the esteem in which she was held throughout the community.

Mrs. Wood was formerly Miss Noeli Ferguson, oldest daughter of Dr. and Mrs. W.H.
Ferguson.  She confessed her Savior early in life and manifested His spirit
always through her cheerful, sunny disposition.  She was married to Oden Wood
and a little daughter came to gladden their home but tarried but a few short
months.

Mrs. Wood, brave through shadow, patient through her long months of suffering,
passed beyond the portals of this life Friday, Jan. 9th.  Her life was short as
measured by years but the true measurement of life is not by years but by
Christian character.  Interment was in Oak Hill cemetery
