Should be soon after her death in Oct 10, 1943. "Miss Bettie Bonner Dies Suddenly At Home Here Miss Bettie Bonner, aged 56, died suddenly at her home in Fairfield Sunday afternoon about 5:45. She had been to Stewards Mill, and returning was eating an evening meal when stricken. Her death was not discovered until the following morning, although roomers were living in the house with her, and they thought nothing strange about not hearing or seeing her, as it was her custom to go to church or visit relatives in the evening. Burial was in the Bonner cemetery north of Stewards Mill Monday evening, at 6 o'clock under direction of Burleson Funeral Home after religious services by the Rev. Frank McElroy. Miss Bonner was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. O. Y. Bonner, an old pioneer family of the County and she was born and reared in the Stewards Mill community. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church and the Eastern Star. Near surviving relatives are seven brothers: Paul Bonner, Stewards Mill; Tom Bonner, Fairfield; John L. Bonner, Streetman; Joel Bonner, Fairfield; Hunter Bonner, Fairfield; Oliver Bonner, Bonnersville; and Sneed Bonner, Franklin."
