This is my wife. I don't need any other documentation about her. - David W. Marshall, Sr.




Betsy was in Palmetto Richland Hospital when she died. She was in the hospital for two weeks as they diagnosed her condition. It was Metastatic Breast Cancer. She declined rapidly and on Monday morning, September 17, 2018 she took her last breath.

I was by her bed, along with my daughter, Susan, and my son, David, when she died. At about 10:30 am she became agitated and struggled for breath. She coughed raggedly and struggled to get a breath. Then she settled down for a few minutes. At 11:00 am she was again agitated and struggled to breath. She coughed two or three times, raised her head up off the bed and lowered it back down. She stopped breathing. I felt for her heart and it was not beating. She was gone.

She was a good woman and worked with hundreds of children at Lexington United Methodist Church over the years, guiding their faith journeys.

I miss her greatly.

She was cremated and interred in the Greenlawn Memorial Park Main Columbarium II 3 C

__________________________________

Mother tired easily and grew weary of my questions at times. I had to wait until she was in the right frame of mind and felt well enough to deal with these questions that often brought back a flood of memories to her. Therefore, the interviews extended over a long period of time. I tried to use her words insofar as I could, so I put her responses in quotation marks. I was not able to cover all the questions, but covered most of them. In any event, there may be some surprises for all of you. I know there were for me. (Deanna Brewer)

1. Your Grandparents

a. Where are they from?

Maternal Grandparents: "I don't know. Mother's mother was an old Ironside

b. Did your grandparents ever tell you stories about when they were little?

"No."

c. Are you like any of your grandparents in any way?

"Don't know, except I like to have fun like Daddy's daddy. I would ride on his

loved them. This was when I was between six and nine years old."

d. Do you have a favorite grandparent memory?

"I liked to get on the train and go to the beach (Buckroe Beach) twice a year.

Granddad was a good cook. He cooked in the army in the Spanish-American war.
He could cook anything. Grandmother was a good cook, too. She cooked on a gas
stove and sometimes sold what she cooked--meats, vegetables and bread--everything.
Just a sideline. Granddad worked in the paper mill. They had nine children. When
she had the last one she said, She took care of the rest and he could take care of that
one.' Every time he came home, she got pregnant."

2. Your Parents

a. Do you know any stories about when they were young?

"No."

g. Do you remember when you got your first skates or bicycle? How did you learn to
get around on your new "wheels"?

"First skates--I remember them very well. I wanted them so bad. I skated all over
the place. I skated down a hill and one of the wheels came off and I fell in a
neighbor's yard and hurt my arm. But I never told my mother because I knew she
would not let me skate anymore. We had a lot of fun. There was a special street they
marked off where everyone skated. I lived in front of a big park that had a big
swimming pool. They drained it three times a day and filled it and we would all go
hop in.

I learned to skate by falling-and-getting-up-and-falling-again method."

h. Tell us about the other children in your family and how you got along with them.

"My younger brother, Graham, was born sick; he had bad kidney trouble but he got
along all right. We played together. He was always sick.

I had a younger sister, Vernell, who died when she was two years old. I cried my
heart out when she died. She had a bad cold that went into pneumonia.

My sister, Pauline, was always fine and healthy. I put her and Vernell in the carriage
at the same time and pushed them around. I married when she was still real young.
Graham was still a teenager.

My youngest brother, Clyde, Jr., was only two when I got married."

i. What did your family like to do together?

"Eat. Young ones liked to swim together. Dad took us to James River and we would
swim. Our neighbor had a boat and we would ride it in James River. We went to the
Baptist Church together. Not much to do, to tell you the truth."

"Mamma's baked chicken and dressing. It was gooood, now you hear me!"

down to the ground. I was six to twelve years old. I got spanked once a day,
everyday. It was so much fun...

did. What was worse, I took my little brother with me. I was six to twelve. I was
always getting in trouble."

I went to the library and got books for him. He was good looking. I corresponded
with him when we moved to Mt. Airy, but my mother made me stop because she
thought I was getting serious--and she may have been right. He was an avid reader.
I have often wondered what happened to him."

p. Who were your best friends when you were growing up? What did you do together?

"Doris Sharpe and Ellen Nunnally. Played jack rocks, hide and seek, chased little
boys around, made fudge candy and sold it to men in Chevrolet place right down the

Gladys suffered from cancer that had spread to the bones, lungs, liver, and other areas of her body. Her daughter-in-law, Cathy, was with her on Friday morning when her breathing suddenly changed. Cathy called the other family members immediately. Gladys had already passed away before Betsy, Theresa, Theresa's children, and I could reach the hospital. She was in Baptist Medical Center when she died. The one blessing was that she did not linger. She died within two weeks from the time we admitted her to the hospital. She was cremated and her remains interred beside her husband in the mausoleum at Greenlawn Cemetery. [DWM-4/27/2001]

David,

I spoke with my Aunt Gayle Wray Orange last week. She confirmed that the picture was in mid fifties, probably after Luther's funeral. She confirmed the order was Clyde, Earl, Russell, Ralph, Howard and Victor. She said Uncle Luther had a stroke in the 40's and passed in 1955.
I am attaching a scanned copy of a enlarged photo that was hanging over my grandfathers (Ralph) mantle of his father, Robert Marion Monroe Wray, during the Spanish American War. My Aunt Gayle has a copy of his discharge papers. I think Myrtle had the original. I have the large version of the photo attached now hanging in my living room. I didn't see it on your page so I thought you might like to have it. I will also get with Gayle as soon as I can to get scanned copy of Victor in the military uniform photo. I'll send more photos as I can get them scanned. I'll keep in touch.

It was the day after a very bad snow storm so that they could not actually take her to the cemetery until at least later in the afternoon or even on a later date. The weather had cleared that day so I drove to Mount Airy from Columbia, S.C. to attend the funeral. The weather threatened to turn bad again the next day so I drove home right after the service in the funeral home.

!I have two sources of his birthday. In the book "Genealogy and Lineage of John Thomas Johnson and his Descendents" the year is given as 1898. However, Gladys (Talbot) Johnson has a picture of him with 1897 written on it as the year of his birth. He is buried in the V. A. National Cemetery in Springfield,Missouri. His headstone lists him as a Yoeman 3rd Class in the U. S. Navy. I visited his gravesite in April, 1990.
