Mrs. Mable Shobert Adams, wife of Oliver Adams, and one of the most loved among the Antlers business ladies, passed to her rich reward Saturday afternoon at 6:45 o'clock, in the home of her mother, Mrs. Ida Shobert, in Okmulgee. For many years, Mrs. Adams was an employee of the Jones Funeral Home. Her smile and pleasant word for all with whom she came in contact, has endeared her into the hearts and memories of all who knew her. She was truly the most agreeable and pleasant Christian. It was about six months ago that Mrs. Adams became ill. Soon thereafter she resigned her position and entered a hospital for a major operation. Her doctors could not offer any encouragement to the family, however, Mrs. Adams was not told of her grave condition. She was removed to the home of her mother and relatives and close friends knew the end was not far off. Her body was brought to Antlers and Monday funeral services were conducted by Rev. Fred A. Tucker, at the Methodist Church and he was assisted by other pastors of the town. Her body was returned to Okmulgee where the last rites were held Tuesday at the Davis Funeral Chapel and burial was made in the Okmulgee Cemetery. Rev. Tucker also conducted the services in Okmulgee, assisted by the ministers of Okmulgee. Mrs. Adams was born April 20, 1893 in Corning, N. Y.; was married to Oliver Adams Jan. 12, 1914. She had been a member of the Methodist Church for 25 years. They came to Antlers 12 years ago. Besides her mother and husband, she is survived by a son, Shobert, and five brothers and one sister: Russell Shobert, Canton, Ohio; Loyd Shobert, Fairbanks, Texas; Rex Shobert, Wewoka, Okla.; Ned Shobert, Hawaii, and Marion Shobert, Okmulgee.
