Oder was born July 23, 1838, and died November 4, 1911, age 73 years. She joined Capehart’s Baptist Church in 1858, was baptized by Thomas Hoggard. She was married in 1862 to Rhuben L. Oder, who died in 1868 leaving her one son, Thomas R. Oder. She united with Lawrence Baptist Church in 1890, where she remained until she died. Sister Oder was a good woman, could always be found in the home of the sick and sorrowing, doing what she could for their comfort. She reared her only son to manhood and then he took care of her as long as lived. Sister Oder leaves one son, three sisters, one brother and four grandchildren to mourn their loss, and whereas our community has lost a faithful friend and Lawrence Church a faithful member therefore be it.
