EFFIE INEZ SEVERNS

OCNS - March 12, 2002 - Effie Inez, Severns, 95, entered into rest on 
March 11, 2002, after a long and happy life.

Effie was born May 16, 1906, in Fairfax, Oklahoma, to Eva Middlebrook Uto 
and Jack Uto and was reared and educated in Fairfax, graduating from 
Fairfax High School.   She married J.W. Severns in 1930 and they started a 
family.   J.W. worked on pipelines, traveling all over the United States.  
They bought a farm in Osage and farmed up until 1970, when J.W. passed 
away.   Effie stayed on the farm for a few years until she decided to move 
to Hominy, Oklahoma, where she made her home until her health began to 
fail.   She made the most of her last few years living at The Cleveland 
(Oklahoma) Manor.   Some of Effie's favorite things throughout her life 
were sewing, quilting, crocheting.   She also loved to cook and was a 
great cook; she enjoyed working in her garden and loved to watch her 
flowers grow.

Effie leaves behind a daughter, Billie Robinson of Hominy; a grandson, 
Rodger and his wife Deanna Robinson of Prue, Oklahoma; a grandson, Richard 
Robinson of Hominy; a grandson, Marshall and his wife, Judy Robinson of 
Hominy; a granddaughter, Cynthia and her husband, Kenneth Robertson of 
Hominy; a brother, Bill and his wife, Mary Uto of Sand Springs, Oklahoma; 
a brother, Cecil Uto of Boca Raton, Florida; twelve great grandchildren 
and eleven great-great grandchildren; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins 
and a host of friends.

Mrs. Severns was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, John 
William Severns, two brothers and a sister.

Services for Effie Severns will be held Wednesday, March 13, in the 
Fairfax Cemetery with Minister Coy Everett officiating.   The family 
entrusted Powell Funeral Home of Hominy with service arrangements.
