DEATH OF MRS JOHN GARNER
Another old inhabitant of the town passed away on Friday last (16th April 1915, Elizabeth, aged 76), in the person of Mrs John Garner, builder and contractor, of Hinkley. Mrs Garner had suffered an illness of nearly four years being seized with a paralytic stroke, which deprived her of the use of her limbs and speech, and rendered her an invalid since that unfortunate happening. She was predeceased by her husband some 14 years, and both before and after his decease, Mrs Garner took a very active interest in the church work of Holy Trinity parish, and was a very energetic member of the working parties of the parish, which did so much to raise funds for the building of the new church. She had no children, but she most unselfishly devoted much care, attention and kindly feeling towards the three step-children. The funeral took place at Hinkley cemetery on Monday. The body was first conveyed to the precincts of Holy Trinity church, which she has worked for so well. The organist and the choir, were in attendance, and rendered most beautifully the choral portion of the service. The hymns were "Christ will gather in his own" and "Now the labourer's task is o'er". The mourners were Mrs. B. Brooks (sister), Mrs. William Flavell (sister), Mr. T. Garner, Mr. Willoughby Garner (stepsons), Mr W. Weaver (son-in-law)......Mr. A. Pickering, Mr. J. Pickering (Bromsgrove), nephews of the deceased. The wreaths included the following:- "Lill and Will" (Bromsgrove); "William (Laddie) and Ralph, to dear Grandma"; Mr. and Mrs. Willoughby Garner (Ealing) "in loving memory to a mother who always did her best".
