Clarence and Maud lived in a one room house. As the years went by everything the couple
accumulated was stacked floor to ceiling in the house. Maud was injured and took to her
bed where she stayed for many years. To pass the time, she crocheted and did needle work.
In the early 1970's, Clarence came in from working and took out a cigar to light it. His clothes
were oil covered and the flame caught his clothing on fire. Maud crawled out of the house to
safety and was treated for smoke inhalation. Clarence was killed in the fire in October 1975. Maud's physicians
determined that there wasn't any physical reason that she was incapable of walking and had her
doing physical therapy and finally got her up on a walker before she passed away at a nursing home on February 18, 1978.
