    Notes 
    • Obituary, copied from her FindAGrave memorial page, created by Mary Jo:

      Mrs. Robert H. Howard passed away last Saturday morning at 6:45 at her home on South Clinton Street, at the age of 67 years.

      She had been critically ill for some time, so her death did not come as a complete shock, but all who knew her are deeply grieved because of the loss of this fine woman.

      Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 4:30 at the Church of Christ in Athens. Bro. Charley Chumbley conducted the service, assisted by Rev. Wimberly. Interment was in the Athens Cemetery, McConnell in charge.

      Mrs. Howard became a member of the Church of Christ 35 years ago and all during this time has been a faithful Christian. Not only will she be greatly missed by her family but also by her many friends and neighbors.

      Mrs. Howard is survived by her husband; three daughters, Mrs. Robert Kelly of Decatur, Mrs. Edward Hobbs of Athens and Mrs. Charles O. Barker of Athens; one son, Lurtis Howard of Athens; eight grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren; two sisters and two brothers, Mrs. Will Ezell, Mrs. Edd Bridges, A.M. McLemore and J.R. McLemore, all of Athens.

      Pallbearers were C.R. Barker, Homer McLemore, Johnie Deemer, Robert Kelly, D.A. Howard and Marvin Flynn.
