"Nancy visited with Lizzie Odom, her daughter in-law, for at least a week every year. Granddaughter Doris spent a week each summer with Nancy.
When John D. Odom died in 1920, Lizzie had no money for a tombstone. Nancy bought John's tombstone. Somehow, a tombstone was never put up at Nancy's grave after she died 8 January 1937. When Lizzie Odom died, Doris and her brothers bought a joint tombstone for their parents, John D. and Lizzie V. Odom. Doris remembered Nancy's grave had no tombstone. John D.Odom's original tombstone (which Nancy W. Odom had purchased) was redone and placed at Nancy W. Odom's grave at Bay springs."
