Information: Mrs. W. P. Pinnell, 85 years old and the mother of W. L. Pinnell, senior member of the contracting firm of Pinnell and Pfost, died at her home near Cottageville on Thursday, December 24, 1936.  The funeral services were held on Saturday and burial was in the Cottageville cemetery.  She had been critically ill for several days prior to her death.  Czorina Alvilda Williamson was born August 27, 1851 and died December 24, 1935, aged 85 years, 3 months and 27 days.  She was married to Henry Lloyd on June 15, 1868.  To this union was born two children, a daughter who died in infancy and a son, Owen R. Lloyd, who is still living.  Her husband, Henry Lloyd, preceded her in death on December 3, 1882.  Czorina Lloyd was remarried on April 3, 1884 to William Perry Pinnell, who preceded her in death on June 15, 1932.  To this union was born one son, William Lloyd Pinnell, who survives her.  Besides the two sons, she is survived by three sisters, Anna E. Rand, of Kansas City, Kansas, Mary Belle Parsons, of Millwood, and Sarah Lloyd, of Cottageville.  Two of her sisters, Emma Thornton and Liza Jane Wheeler, preceded her in death.  She was converted and joined the Baptist church at Mt. Alto when she was eighteen years of age and lived a devoted christian life until her death.  During the past few years ill health prevented her from taking an active part in church work.  She was one of the county's oldest residents and by her kind and pleasant manner had endeared herself as ""Grandmother Pinnell"" and will be greatly missed as a neighbor and friend.
