Chapter 156, Order of Eastern Star, Invincible Sisterhood, 112 
Dames of Malta, Buhl Circle 480 P.H.C., and a past templar of 
the Ladies of the Golden Eagle.

     Beside her husband she is survived by two daughters, 
Florence, a teacher in the Washington annex, Gwendolyn, a 
teacher in the J.A. Farrell building, one brother, Ellis 
Michaels of Farrell.
