25 Jan 08 Graveside

Born in 1918 she moved with her husband and her mother to Stockton, CA in 1930 from Oklahoma.

Yesterday, she was laid to rest beside her husband (who had passed away in 1960) and her mother (who had passed away in the late 1960’s).

I presided over the service for her in the presence of a handful of surviving family members. 

On the grave marker belonging to her mother there is no date of birth and no date of death.

She wanted no one to know how old she was.

   I think you should dig her up and run some type of carbon dating test to clear up this mystery!
