After her marriage and her coming to Myponga there was evident in the interest in the work of God from the begining of her residence in the neighbour.
During thirty yearrs that interest continued and was apparent in the Myponga Church and the Circuit, with which it connected our sister attended Stone Laying celebrations at Myponga and contributed towards the building. Besides contributing and working for the welfare of the church, she was latterly amember of the Church, she having joined during the early patern of the Rev E A Petherick.
She was ever so bright and cheerful,always ready to say the kind word to be helpful and sympathetic to those who were in need. her illness there the result of a seizure lasted for several weeks during which time was increasing weakness but apparently little or no painl feature which cannot but be conobing to the friends.
After passing through the weeks of illness and growing feebleness without complain or repending our sister passed to her reward on Sept 1916. Strength after weekness crown after cross.
A memorial service attended by the residents of the district was held in the Church at Myponga on the 19th Nov by the Pastor the deceased and grief felt for the loss sustained and in the service such influence was manifest as we trust may lead some to follow our sister as she followed Christ.
