She was married on December 19th, 1883 to the late Walter Simmons, who predeceased her by 20 years.

In religion Mrs. Sipimons was a Presbyterian, being a menuber of the former Chalmer's Church, Flesh- erton. Since Union she has faith- fully attended the Baptist Church in Flesherton and Rock Mills until ill health prevented her going. During a short service at her late home, conducted by her ipastor, Mr. F. B. Keys, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Chard rendered a duet, "111 Go Where You Want Me To Go." This service was closed by a nephew, Mr. John Blackburn of Orillia. The re- mains were then taken to the Flesh- erton Baptist Church where Mr. F. B. Keys and Mrs. Keys sang a duet "I Want To See Jesus, Don't You". Mr. Keys conducted the service and based his sermon on the 23rd Psalm and St. Jo'hn the 10th Chapter, sett- ing her life as an example. All hymns sung were favorites of the deceased. Interment was made in the family plot in Flesherton Cemetery. The pallbearers were, Messrs. Ar- thur Chard, Charles Stafford, Joseph Shier, John Badgerow, Cecil Mel- drum and Harry Fisher.
