My Grandmother Burdette Adams told that she was a "Blue Baby" (RH disease) and that she had trouble with it all her life. My Grandmother said she died shortly after being scared by a snake at her country school. However, Theresa's obituary states she died of Cerebral Hemorrhage.
Funeral services were held Saturday morning at 9 o'clock at the St. Boniface Catholic Church for Miss Teresa Adams who passed away suddenly Wednesday evening. Her death was a great shock to her family and many friends as she was in apparently good health until 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon when she returned home from her duties as a rural school teacher with a severe headache.
