Mamie T. (White) Berry
July 13, 1889 - February 5, 1967

Mamie Tressie (White) Berry was the daughter of Wallace and Annica (Looney) White of Cave Springs, Missouri. Mamie was born on July 13, 1889, probably in Cave Springs. Sometime before 1910, Mamie relocated with her parents to Dade County, Missouri. In about 1915, Mamie married Luther D. Berry and moved to the Berry family farm west of Ash Grove. Mamie and Luther had five children together before his death in 1951. Mamie passed away on February 5, 1967, at 77 years of age (Russell 2012).​

Grave Marker: Mamie Berry is memorialized by an individual headstone and by the inclusion of her name on the communal memorial installed in 2017. The headstone, installed recently, is a marble tablet style headstone, issued by the U.S. military; Mamie's husband Luther served in the U.S. military during WWII. Because Mamie's grave was not marked by an individual headstone in 2017, her name was included on the new monument, installed in 2017, for individuals interred in unmarked graves in the Berry Cemetery.
