obituary in a Brownfield newspaper read:
GRANDMOTHER GREEN DEAD. On Saturday morning at 3'oclock, the death angel called to the Father's house Mrs. Mary Green, the mother of our beloved townsman, J. C. Green. Grandmother Green was born in Washington County, Texas, Nov. 26, 1852, and was married in 1869 to J. M. Green. To this union was born nine children; six of which are now living. Mr. J. C. Green of city is the oldest of the children. Mrs. Green was converted in her young girlhood and joined the Methodist Church, from which time she lived a most beautiful and faithful Christian life. Thirteen months ago Grandmother Green came to live with her oldest son in Brownfield. Her sweet devoted Christian life has cheered the hearts of all of those who knew her. She always had a king word for everyone, as Mrs. Randal has often remarked: "She made everyone better who knew her. Her room where she stayed seemed to be the brightest spot anywhere, because of her cheerfulness." In all of her affliction she never complained, resigning completely to the will of God, expressing the words again of the great Apostle, when he said: "For our light affliction which is but for the moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory." Mrs. Green had a most wonderful memory. Even up to the last hour she spoke, she knew the folks by name who came to her bedside. If she ever met a person, she knew them by name after that. Mrs. Green's life has been a benediction to us all, and we want to live truer, brighter lives because of her example she set while she was here. Even though the body has been layed to rest until the resurrection morn, her spirit lives on to bless the world until Jesus comes again. Rev. J. E. Anderson. Funeral services were conducted at the family residence Saturday afternoon by Rev. J. E. Anderson, many friends of the family being in attendance to pay their last respects to this beloved woman who was a friend to everyone. Burial took place in the Odd Fellows' Cemetery at 4 p.m."
