Note from Annette Wade: As I read these obituaries tonight
I was concerned: it shows survivor of two sisters which is incorrect. However,
the survivor, Mrs. Mae Brown is her sister-in-law which she obviously felt
was a sister staying in touch with her all of the years after her husband’s
death. Lena’s other sister, May Gresham Mobley had died many years
before. The real surviving sister was my grandmother so I knew Lena from
my childhood.
