The Lord plucked a little rosebud Sunday afternoon when little Anna Boone Siler, the 2-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Siler was called to join the host of children in Heaven. The cause of death was pneumonia.
Funeral services were conducted by Pastor J.T. Mangum of the Methodist church at the Baptist church this afternoon at 3:30. Mrs. L.M. Richeson of Hazelwood sang a beautiful solo “Asleep in Jesus.” There were many floral offerings and a large crowd of friends and relatives in attendance.
