Mrs. John Shumate
Dies Monday At
Brunswick Home
Mrs. Billie McDonald Shumate,
wife of Dr. John H. Shumate,
prominent Brunswick dentist,
passed away at the City Hospital
Monday night, April 28, two
hours after the death of her lit
tle infant son.
Announcement of the death of
Mrs. Shumate came as a great
shock to members of her family
and friends. Although she had
resided on St. Simons Island for
only a short time, she had made
an unusually large circle of
friends, both on the island and
in the city.
Mrs. Shumate removed to
Brunswick last May with her*
husband when he opened dental
offices in the city, and the fam
ily has since resided on the is
land.
Mrs. Shumate was born in
Gainesville, Ga., March 22, 1920,
and therefore was 27 years of
age. Besides her husband, she is
survived by one daughter by a
former marriage, Patricia Ann
Denman, aged 7; her mother,
Mrs. Irene M. Stewart, Gaines
ville; two sisters, Mrs. Frances
Maddox and Mrs. George Large,
both of Gainesville.
Funeral services were held at
the St. Simons Methodist Church
Wednesday afternoon, April 30,
at 3 o’clock, conducted by the
Rev. Aubrey Alsobrook. Burial
was in Christ Church Cemetery,l
Frederica. The following served
as pallbearers: Active, Chester
Higgison, William P. Drew, Al
len Akridge, William Way, Al
Tatske and Tommy Bennett; I
honorary, Dr. F. J. Robben, O. T.■
Knuckolls, J. M. Denman. Ar- ;
rangements were in charge of
Mortician Edo Miller.
MRS. MARY JANE FLOYD
DIES AT TRION HOME
Mrs. Mary Jane Floyd, 82, of
Trion, Route 1, died Tuesday at
4:45 p. m., after several weeks’
illness.
She is survived by four daugh
ters. Mrs. S. S. Speer, Mrs. Henry
Tyler, Mrs. J. J. Becker, Mrs. O.
W. Whitley, Route 1, Trion;
three sons, W. H., N. H., and D.
F., all of Trion, Route 1; 12
grandchildren, and nine great
grandchildren.
Funeral services will be held
Thursday at 2 p. m., from the
Mountain View Baptist Church,
with Rev. G. W. Cox and Rev.
John Scott officiating. Inter
ment in the Trion Cemetery. The
Hill-Weems Funeral Home of
Summerville in charge.
Naturally, you and
your family want the
highest motoring enjoy
ment at the lowest pos
sible price; and you’ll
find these advantages in
the new 1947 Chevrolet
—the only car giving
Big-Car quality at lowest
cost—as the following
facts prove.
i.' Chevrolet gives you the Big-Car
| performance and reliability of a
s Valve-in-Head Thrift-Master
Engine —together with Chev
rolet's low upkeep costs —and
