An East Texas woman who
dedicated most of her life and all of her time to her community has passed
away.
Mollie Ward, who was once
the mayor of New London, died this morning at the age of 86. Listing all of
Mollie's accomplishments is nearly impossible. There are many things that
Mollie will always be remembered for--- including starting the New London Museum,
which honors the victims and survivors of the New London School explosion.
In 1937, when the explosion
occurred, Mollie Ward became a survivor. She used her life, which was spared,
to make sure her classmates that were killed in the explosion would never be
forgotten.
