Moved to Joliet about 1901. She was a member of the First Presbyterian church and Bethany Circle, The King's Daughters. Died suddenly one night at her home 508 Oneida Street.
'The old sewing machine is gone being sold this day toward a new one. How many recollections came surging over me when my old machine went. It was like the parting of an old friend ... memories of by gone days were with me ... days when I had all my loved family with me ... of times and different circumstances.
I thought of the hours of stitching with it. Many times the little kerosene lamp was giving light upon the work while I was still pushing the treadle. It has sewed graduating fluffs and wedding ruffs and gladsome things for Christmas. So many happy hours were passed over it ... bright hopes and anticipations for my children and thoughts about my loving husband.
Garments were made for the rich, and for the poor for charities sake. A little shroud was made for a neighbors child who is playing now in Heaven. Sun bonnets and gay garden hats have sprung from its needle, masquerade suits, dancing frocks have appeared in bright colorings.
Later days now stitches of love for grand children's frocks and fumbelos. Its usefulness is worn and past ... the new has come.
The dear old machine has gone but the blessed memories are with me yet.'
Anna Olivia Sawyer Ridenour September 21, 1918
