Eastburn of the M. E. Church, assisted by Rev. Gladden of the M. P. Church. Grand- mother Cooley, as she was called by everyone, large and small, was known, loved and respected by all who knew her. She is survived by the following children: V. L. Cooley, Mrs. Martha Jane Kissinger, Mrs. Eliza Carr, Louie and Pierce at home. She leaves 19 grandchildren and 52 great grandchild- dren. She was a fond, loving mother and bore her affliction with a tender, loving spirit. The Ladies Aid Society of the M. E. Church presented a beau- tiful bouquet of carnations and ferns. She was a faithful member of the so- ciety and was a member of the M. P. Church. Well we can say a sainted mother has gone to be with Jesus, safe from all sorrow and care; waiting and watching for loved ones who expect some time to meet her there.
