She was stricken just a few hours before the end, but for some time she had been in an uncertain state of health. Through all the sorrows and afflictions of her life she maintained a cheerful and courageous spirit, acting well her part in every sphere of life and duty.

She will be greatly missed in the home and in her circle of friends and acquaintainces being as she was, a faithful and helpful companion, a devoted daughter-in-law, and a friend to all.

"Lead Kindly Light," "What a Friend We Have in Jesus," "Shall We Gather at the River," and a special number by the choir, "Beyond the Sunset". The body was laid to rest in Crawford's cemetery near the home. The pallbearers were: Dan McDougald, John Nisbet, Hilyard McLean, W.A. Nicol, James Paul and James Smith.
