Mrs. Fendley was a homemaker and also ran Don FendleyÂ’s Grocery Store for over 27 years. She was a woman of strong principles and lived a life of independence after the death of her husband. She lived alone for 37 years and was talented enough to fix anything that needed repairing on the place. She was always compassionate to children and animals. She enjoyed reading, crocheting and sewing. She received a library card from Putnam County Library when she was 10 years old and is probably the oldest living library card holder in the country.
