East Moline, Ill., Wayne Robert and Williard LaVerne of Seymour, Mrs. Larry

She was preceded in death by her husband,
Douglas Ervin, one son in infancy, two sisters, one granddaughter, Terry Lee

Her entire life was spent in Appanoose and
Wayne counties. For the past several
years she was a resident of Seymour. She
was a kind and loving mother, wife and grandmother and will be sadly missed by
all.
A precious one from us is gone,

A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
