April 27, 1979 Aunt Estelle wrote

Clear   Cloudy    Truman Steward died at hospital this morning.   Millard & I went up to Jennings a while this morn.  I mowed and clipped some.  Reba was in allso Roy & Edith.  F. M. Sturgill dead after being on the machine of life for 2 days. 


Footnote by Pat:    I don't know who Truman Steward was - must have been a friend as I am pretty sure he was not a relative.   Millard is her husband and Jennings  is her brother.  Reba was her sister-in-law and Edith was her sister and Roy was Edith's husband.   F.M.Sturgill owned the funeral home in Pennington Gap  where a lot of her friends and relatives were taken before burial.    I never heard the life support system being called "machine of life"
