Both before and since that time she has been identified with church and community work and was always ready and willing to lend a helping hand wherever it seemed to be needed. For several years she has been secretary as well as organist of the Conway Sunday school and with her cheerful disposition and regular attendance did much toward keeping up interest in Sunday school work. She was especially fond of music and was endowed with a beautiful voice. She graduated from the common school at South Boston about four years ago, where she endeared herself to her school mates and teachers alike, all of whom will feel a personal loss in her departure. Most of her short life was spent with her father and mother, however since her marriage she and her husband have lived at Oaklandon, Ind., a few miles north of Indianapolis. Her husband, father and mother were at her bedside when the end came.
