FANNIE VIRGINIA WOODARD

   At the home of her niece, Mrs. S.S. Bishop, near Handsom on August 2, 1918, 
Miss Fannie Virginia Woodard passed quietly away.  Though in feeble health 
for many months her death came as a shock to those around her, she having been 
up all of that day until a few minutes before she was found dead at 6 p.m.

   She was born in New Kent County, Va., but had spent most of the last thirty 
years with her sister, Mrs. Eva Bryant, of Sunbeam.  She led a very quiet life 
being seldom seen outside the home.

   She is survived by one brother, T.D. Woodard of Richmond, and three 
sisters, Mrs. J.T. Whitlock of Henrico County, Mrs. R.J. Warriner of Richmond 
and Mrs. Eva Bryant.  The funeral was conducted by her pastor, Rev. W.R. 
Evans, from Mt. Horeb Church, of which she had been a member for many years. 
The body was laid to rest in the old Bryant burying ground at J.T. Bryant’s. 
The pallbearers were; J.W., L.L. W.E. and J.T. Bryant, S.S. Bishop and W.E. 
Beale.  The flowers covering the mound were beautiful, typifying the gracious, 
gentle life of the deceased.
