Rena Oliver was born Jan. 27, 1881, and died of congestion Nov. 21, 1895, after a brief illness of five days. She leaves a father, a mother, four brothers, a sister-in-law and a host of friends to mourn their loss. She was ever an obedient daughter, a lovable sister and friend, and a studious pupil of a sunny disposition, always having a kind and cheery greeting for everyone. She loved to attend Sunday school and church and although she had not been connected with any church, we feel assured her heart was in her Savior’s keeping.
She had expressed a desire to unite with the Christian Church and the funeral was conducted by Rev. S. H. Creighton in the Christian Church at this place Nov. 23rd, and interment at Oak Hill.
