Obituary: THE GLORIOUS AND SPECTACULAR LIFE OF

LAURA CARRELL MATHER

Laura Carrell Mather was born in Holdenville, Oklahoma, on 18, 1918. She was the daughter of Newton Addison Carrell, who was the Assessor. Her mother was Myrtle Johnson Carrell. As teenagers, both Newt and Myrt came to Oklahoma with their families in covered wagons from Arkansas to take part in the Oklahoma Land Rush. In this historic event, at the shot of a pistol, individuals could claim land that was once part of the Indian Territories for their own. Newt and Myrt met at a fish fry en route, married, and lived as sharecroppers in Oklahoma, moving about frequently to make a living and rise a family. Laura was one of 10 children, the fourth youngest. She is survived by her sister, Ruth Carrell, who drove from Oklahoma City to be with us today.

Laura went to grade school at Social Hill where her sister Georgia taught in a one room school house. She continued her schooling at Moore High School, where she was chosen as valedictorian of her class. high school, she attended Oklahoma for Women at Chickasaw.

When she was in grade school, one day she was weeding the field with her sister Geneva, as part of her family chores. A small, early model, 6 seater propeller plane flew overhead and Geneva said our teacher says that people are paid to work on those planes. Laura said I want to do that and did. Laura proceeded to become a stewardess. Because early stewardess had to be registered nurses, after college, Laura proceeded to nursing school in Denver, Colorado. Upon graduation, she worked as a nurse at several locations including Cook Hospital.

One day, her father went to his mailbox in rural Oklahoma. When he returned, he said to Myrtle, I believe there is a picture of Laurie on the cover of this magazine. Myrt replied Dick, now what would Laura be doing on the cover of a national magazine. Sure enough, Laura was the stewardess picked to be on the cover of the United airlines magazine.

While working as chief stewardess, flying out of Chicago, she met and married Robert S Mather. had three children, Roberta, James, and Martha. Although they started their married life off in Hyde Park near the University of Chicago, they soon moved to Kenilworth, where Laura lived for 62 years until her death.
