Pearl Wiona Parker was born at Orafino, Frontier County, Nebraska, Sept. 25th 1896, growing to womanhood here at Farnam, where her parents moved 19 years ago. She was married to Kenneth L. Carman, April 8th, 1921 at Minden, Nebraska, going on to Lincoln, Nebraska, where her new home was waiting.

She with her husband during 1921 united with the Trinity Methodist Church at Lincoln, and this last Easter with others, Mr. and Mrs. Carman united with the Methodist Church at their new home in Syracuse, Nebraska by transfer from Lincoln.

They had made their new home at Syracuse only since February last, but as her pastor said at Syracuse, by her genial ways, pleasant smile, and kindness had made many friends.

Early last Saturday morning at a few minutes past midnight she departed this life after but a very short illness.

A very impressive short service was held at the home at Syracuse on leaving for Farnam.

In this sudden death in the the beginning of life a very happy home is broken up, a loving companion is left heart broken and lonely. Mr. and Mrs. John W. Parker, the devoted parents are bereft of a chile whom every one loved. The three brothers and five sisters will miss Pearl the beloved sister.

This community where she so well known weep with those who weep because they too loved her. Funeral services were held from the M.E. Church, Monday at 2 p.m. Rev. M.S. Satchel officiated. The remains were laid to rest in the Farnam cemetery.
