Mrs. Nancy Celina (Coon) Hulett was born in the town of Little Genesee, N. Y., June 30, 1840, and died at the same place, November 26, 1911.
In the year 1854 she was baptized by Rev. Thos. B. Brown and united with the First Genesee Seventh-day Baptist Church. She has remained a lifelong member of this church and has given constant witness of her love for God by a faithful Christian life. On her thirtieth birthday she was married to Daniel W. Hulett and for about forty years they have lived together in their comfortable little home, from which she is now called away to the “Better Home.”
There was born to them one son, Dr. H. L. Hulett of Allentown, N. Y. He has been a “mother’s pride and joy.” Her last concern of this life was for him and his family, and her faithful husband. Almost her last words to her pastor were, “Oh, I wish I could see the darling children once more.” And yet, before the doctor and his family could reach her bedside, in answer to a message of haste, she said to her anxious husband, “I can’t see you.” Her eyes closed to all earthly scenes; but heavenly scenes were just beyond.
