On Monday, November 2nd, 1936, another, pioneer of Reach went to her reward, in the person of Caroline Ann Hooper, widow of the late Thomas W. Sonley, who. predeceased her over twenty years ago. KY : ~The late Mrs. Sonley was born in the Township of Brock on the 24th of June; 1844, and was the daughter of the late Richard Hooper and Elizabeth Rundle. In 1868 she became the bride "|'of Thomas W. Sonley of Whitby and|, they settled on the Fourth Concession of the Township of Reach and which remained the old homestead until the recent decease of Mrs. Sonley. ~Mr. and Mrs. Sonley had six child- ren, four sons and two daughters, as 'follows: ' George' Herbert, Thomas Walter, and William Luther, all of whom predeceased their mother, the living children being: Ann Sarah, wife 'of George Horn, of Edmonton," Alta.; Richard Francis, of Toronto, and Elizabeth Constance, widow of the late John Sutherland, who has always remained on the old homestead in the Township of Reach. Mrs. Sonley also leaves to mourn her loss fifteen grandchildren and nineteen great grandchildren. Six nephews of the deceased were pall- bearers: J. Bagshaw, Frank Hooper, Wilmot and Herman Walker, William and Alfred Sonley. At a ripe old age, in her 93rd year, Mrs. Sonley passed quietly away much beloved by her many friends and high- ly esteemed throughout the commun- ity. She was a person of a very loy- able and amiable disposition. A lady of a more cheerful personality it would be difficult to find. She always looked on the bright side of things and her trust was ever in her God. The Rev. M, Stanley Elliot, her minister, conducted the funeral ser- vice at her home and a large con- course of residents came to demon- ! strate the deep affection held, by the whole community for the deceased. The deceased lady was laid to rest in Pine Grove Cemetery at Prince Albert, Ontario, Christmas. is Coming!
