Mrs. Arthur Waymire was born in Barkley township, Jasper county, Indiana, on October 8, 1887, and departed this life on August 11, 1911, at the age of 23 years, 10 months and 3 days. She was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John F. Payne. On January 1, 1907, she married Arthur Waymire, the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Waymire. To this union a son, Herold. was born on March 5, 1908. At the age of 13 Mrs. Waymire joined the M. E. church and was a faithful and devoted member, “willing and ’ valuable helper in all the departments of the church activities. As a wife she was true and devoted to her husband, sharing all his duties and responsibilities, making the home happy and cheerful. As a daughter she was loving, affectionate and respectful to her parents. Her quiet and kihd disposition easily won the friendship of all who knew her.
Her sickness, which was Bright's disease, began about the first of January, and it developed to such an extent that it soon was beyond control. All that husband, parents and relatives could do to minister to her comfort and gain her recovery was done. She went for four weeks to the hospital in Chicago and there was under the care of a specialist and special nursed? jet it was of no avail. When she came back home she seemed to feel better until on Thursday morning, August 10th, when she relapsed, and passed away, surrounded by her loved ones, on Friday morning, August 11th. During all her sickness she never uttered a single word of complaint or discouragement, having a complete trust that all was for the best. She leaves to mourn her departure a husband, a father and mother, a brother, Clifford, and a son, Herold, and a host of relatives and friends.
