(My name is Irma Irwin and I am the daughter of Ollie Pearl Tolbert Senning. I 

am submitting this obit with corrections and addition for genealogy. My older 

brother submitted this to the newspaper without thought of what it might mean to 

future generations. Mainly who her mother was. Her mother was Bertie Hanshew 

Tolbert who died in 1908. Her stepmother, Rebecca Ann Adams Tolbert, raised her. 

This is the correction made. Maiden names were added to her daughter's names and 

also to her name.)
