Text | Mrs. Laura Rogers died at her home near Cape Fair, Mo., Dec. 21, 1917. Her death was caused by a cancer. She was a daughter of Henry Porter near Butterfield. She was born the 18th of Oct. 1872, was married to F. M. Rogers, Jan. 3, 1904, which was a happy union of 14 years. She was a member of the Baptist church for more than 25 years and a great Sunday school worker. She suffered a great deal but rejoiced in a Savior's love, said she was going home to mother where flowers are blooming and will bloom forever. She asked if they had any message to send as she thought she would be able to carry it, said she had happy home here but was going to a happier one in Heaven. She leaves a husband, father, four brothers, three sisters and a host of friends to mourn their loss, but trust that someday may meet her on that bright shore where partings come no more. Her last resting place here on earth is in the Carney graveyard. Funeral services were conducted by J. W. Riddle. A Friend |
