    • Funeral Services Held In Purdin, August 6th
      Etta Lydia Pulliam Cady, daughter of Thomas and Anna Cassity Pulliam, was born May 25, 1877 in Linn County, Missouri and departed this life, August 4, 1957 at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Kenneth Gooch, at the age of 80 years, 2 months and 9 days.
      She was converted and united with the Church of Christ in early life and was an active member as long as her health permitted.
      She was from a family of six children. Her father, mother, a sister Maggie, and two brothers, William and Edward, preceded her in death.
      She was united in marriage to David L. Cady, December 26, 1902. They made their home in Jackson Township for three years then moved to Purdin where she had kept her own home until a few days before her passing. To this union three children were born: Mrs. Mary Evelyn Hill of St. Paul, Minn.; Mrs. Stella Mae Gooch of Browning, Mo., and one son Thomas David who passed away at the age of sixteen years.
      She leaves to mourn her passing besides her two daughters, one sister, Mrs. Minnie Bivens of Denver, Colo., and a brother, Charley Pulliam who is seriously ill at this time, and four grandchildren and thirteen great grandchildren.
      She will be long remembered by those who loved her best for her unassuming loyalty, her pleasing personality and her kind consideration of others.
      A Good Mother has gone to her reward,
      God saw the road was getting rough,
      He said to her, you've done enough,
      A crown you've won,
      For a life will lived and a work well don.
      Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon, August 6, 1957 at 2 p.m. in the Methodist Church in Purdin, conducted by the pastor, the Rev. E.L. Huchel. Song service was by Mrs. Rose Johnson and Miss Rose Chambers accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Helen Matkins.
      Casket bearers were Jess Pulliam, Jimmie Lorenz, Marvin Murrell, Leon Gooch, Kenneth Murrell and Loren Owens. Burial was made in the Purdin cemetery under the direction of the Wade Funeral Service.
