TO
MRS. BROWN
Will be Missed by All Who
Knew Her

II Ollie Montrose Brown was born
September 18th, 1881, at Smithfeld
Utah, and moved with her parents in
1887 to Weston, Idaho, where she
resided until 1902, during which
time she attended the Agricultural
College of the University of Utah,
and received her diploma when but
A years of age. At the age of Is
she began teaching in the public
schools of this state, at which profes-
sion she was engaged for period of
four years. On June 18th, 1914, she
was united in marriage to George M.
Brown of this place. She and her
husband made their home in Sho-
shone.
She was not only companion to
her husband but gave her untiring
and undated efforts to his many
business affairs, sharing with him an
equal interest in these responsible
ties. During this time they took
into their home to care for and edu-
cate, Lowell Winchester, an orphan
child, to whom Mrs. Brown was all
that kind and tender mother could
have been. The many kind acts that
was one among them any traits of
her life that made her innumerable
friends. When the sad news of her
death were made known, many of
her neighbors, even children of ten
der years and women old and gray,
said: my best friend has passed
away Upon these tender hearts
the heavy shadows fell. The many
kind and generous deeds that she did
with glad and willing heart, that
comforted children in the time of
need and the aged in the hours of
sickness and suffering, each act grac
ed with a smile that will remain Wis
ible to the face of the living many
years after the body has grown cold.
What more can be said, what more
is necessary for the completion of a
successful life? Yet in the very May
of her life, when happiness
the hours of every day, she |
left the shore touched by the mysteri- |
Gus sea, that never yet has borne on |
any wave, the image of homeward |
sail
