Taken from McDonald Pa Outlook 29 Dec 1921

On Christmas night, at 8:20 o'clock the Death Angel called Mrs. Emma Eleanor 
MCMURRAY LITTLE to her heavenly home, after a lingering illness of ten 
months from a complication of diseases. During the time of her sickness she 
was a patient sufferer and up to the last minute she had her trust in God, 
always praying that she might be spared to live until Christmas day. About 
four weeks ago she asked to be taken to the home of her parents, Mr. and 
Mrs. Robert MCMURRAY where she entered into the everlasting sleep. Mrs. 
LITTLE was born at Mt. Washington, January 11, 1888, and came to Oakdale 
with her parents when four years old. She attended the South Side school 
and was a member of the Oakdale Presbyterian church. On April 23, 1908 she 
was united in marriage to Mr. Frank LITTLE and to this union were born six 
children, two girls and four boys, all of whom she leaves to mourn her loss. 
The funeral services were held on Wednesday afternoon at two o'clock at the 
home pf her parents, conducted by the Rev. W. D. LEWIS. Interment was in 
the Oakdale cemetery.
 
This is the first death to break the family circle, leaving her 
six children, husband, father and mother, and four sisters, Mrs. I PERRIN, 
of Independence, Pa., Mrs. TOEWE, of Midland, Pa., Mrs. L. WEINMANN, of 
Oakdale, Miss Agnes, and one brother, Robert, at home. The entire community 
express their deepest sympathy to the bereaved family.
