She was a member of the Flovilla Methodist church and manifested deep interest in church and religious affairs. She was widely beloved by schoolmates and friends and her fine character was impressed upon all with whom she came in contact.

Conner, of Lakewood Heights, Atlanta; three sisters, Miss Evelyn Conner, Atlanta; Mrs. Lois Dodson, of Jackson; Mrs. Frank Cash, of Toccoa; two brothers, Arthur Reed and Barkley, of Atlanta; her grandmother, Mrs. Frank McMichael, of Jackson.
