We are not sure which year Gwenieth graduated from high school.  Her obituary said she did so based on birth date we put her with the 1935 class.

Her services will be held at 11:00am, Wednesday, April 16, 2008, in First Baptist Church of Timpson, interment to follow in Woodlawn Cemetery in Timpson. Officiating will be Rev.

Gwenieth and Leonard Dean Tyer were married August 16, 1937, and he preceded her in death on September 12, 1981.

Gwenieth Tyer loved her God, family and friends. Holidays brought Gwenieth much pleasure as she prepared the traditional feasts for her family. Many families in Timpson were also blessed with her delicious food as she ministered to others. Her love of flowers was evident with her beautifully landscaped yard.
