Clear rain We went to the Dr. this eve. I visited down at the hospital a minute. Edith & Roy were in a minute. Mr. & Mrs. Jake Parsons come in a while before we went to prayer meeting. Millard didn't go. We heard F.M. Sturgill was dead or near death today.
Footnote by Pat: Edith is her sister and Roy is Edith's husband (my Mother and Daddy). Jake Parsons is a neighbor. Millard is her husband. F.M. Sturgill was a friend who lived in Pennington Gap, about 7-8 miles west . He owned the Sturgill Funeral Home (I think). She went to a lot of funerals - sometimes she didn't know the person who was deceased but knew someone who knew the person. That is where she did a lot of her visiting with people she didn't see often. She did love to visit and she loved visitors. As they say nowadays, she did like to "just hang out".
