MRS. NAN CENTER BURNED TO DEATH AT STILLWATER HOME

"Aunt Nan Centers" as she was lovingly called by her family and 
friends, was accidentally burned to death at her home on Stillwater on Monday, 
February 21, about 3:00 p.m.

Aunt Nan made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Millie Brewer, who had 
stepped from the house for a few minutes.  When Mrs. Brewer returned to 
the house she found her mother on the floor with third degree burns and 
in an unconscious state,  She died about two hours later.

It was assumed that she had accidentally caught her outing gown on fire 
and had probably fainted in trying to put it out.

Funeral services were conducted at one o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, 
at the Campton Methodist Church of which Aunt Nan was one of the oldest 
members.  Hearne Funeral Home was in charge of the burial service.

She was the wife of the late Judge G.T. Centers of Stillwater and is 
survived by three children.  A son, George Center of Lexington, and two 
daughters, Mrs. Millie Brewer and Mrs. B. Rose, both of Stillwater.

Three grandchildren, A.C. Elkins of Elkins and Rose, Stillwater is one 
and George's two children the others.  Some great grandchildren.

Aunt Nan was an ardent Christian all her life and will be greatly 
missed by all her family and friends.  She would soon have been 91 years of 
age.
