(submitted by Gerald & Tammy Westmoreland)
The death angel visited the home of T.A. Wheeler Friday afternoon and claimed as its victim his beloved daughter Miss Cora, age 25.
She had been in declining health for several years and for the last few months had been confined to her room, but bore her suffering patiently and always had a smile for everyone.
She was a member of the Church of Christ and was a devoted christian girl.
It was so hard to part with her but we know that God in his wisdom knows best and that her going will make Heaven nearer to her bereaved family.
She leaves to mourn her death her father, three sisters, Mrs. Belton Reaves of Oxford; Mrs. Alex McGee and Mrs. Luther Chandler of Borden Springs; two brothers John and Arthur, several aunts and uncles, neices and nephews and a host of friends in the community.
Funeral and burial service were conducted at Arrington Chapel Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, L.H. Reavis of Summerville conducted the services.
