She was born March 24, 1908, and was converted in August, 1925. She later joined Sweet Liberty Missionary Baptist Church of near Fulton, Arkansas, where she faithfully served until her death. We feel that she is sleeping that peaceful sleep that comes to one and all, and someday round the throne we'll meet, when Christ the Savior calls. She leaves to mourn her going her husband, Brother Lawrence McBay, three daughters, Martha Lou, Emma Jean and Francis McBay; one brother, Eld. Lee Nations; three sisters, Mrs. Lillie Smith, Mrs. Rosa Smith, and Mrs. Cora McBay, all of Hope, Arkansas, and a host of relatives and friends. Her father went on before her many years, and her mother followed shortly after her. It is sad to lose our loved ones, who have been so kind and true. When they are gone forever we are all so sad and blue, But let us remember what the Savior said one time, to our Father up in heaven, 'Let thy will be done, not mine'. We know that our loss of a friend and neighbor is Heaven's gain. ... Mrs. Estelle Treece, Mrs. Gertrude Treece, Mrs. Luke Treece, Committee.
