Passing of Jennie Surber
Jennie Givens was born in Stanford, Ky., April 19th, 1852. At the age of nineteen she graduated from Daughters College at Harrisburg, Ky.. She was married to G. L. Surber, December 9th, 1875. They came to Idaho in June, 1898.
Mr. Surber was a minister of the Gospel for more than fifty years, having served the Payette Church of Christ several years ago.
Since her husband's death June 19th, 1912, she has made her home with her daughter, Mrs. T. O. Ady. It was in her home that she passed away August 25th, 1931.
She became a Christian at the age of seventeen and has lived faithful and true to the end. To know her was to know one of God's true Saints.
Mrs. Surber is survived by two children, Mrs. T. O. Ady and L. E. Surber of Payette, Idaho. Also three sisters and one brother of Kentucky.
Funeral services were held at the Church of Christ Thursday morning at 10:30 o'clock and were conducted by the Pastor, Mrs. Beem, assisted by Mr. Beem. Interment took place at Riverside cemetery.
Another hand is beckoning us,
Another call is given.
And glows once more with angele steps
The path which reaches Heaven.
Our dear and gentle mother, whose smile
Made brighter summer hours,
Amid the heat of summer time,
Has left us with the flowers.
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our deep gratitude to the kind friends and neighbors who so generously offered their services and sympathy during our recent bereavement in the loss of our mother, and for the beautiful floral offerings.
Mr. and Mrs. T. O. Ady
