Richlands News Progress; 6 Nov 1941

FUNERAL RITES FOR MRS.
R. H. HUDSON TODAY

Last rites ere held this afternoon for Mrs. R. H. Hudson, manager of the Eagle Hotel, whose death occurred in a local hospital Tuesday morning.

Services were held in the Methodist Church with the pastor, Rev. H. B. Abshire, officiating. Members of the chapter of the Order of Eastern Star, to which Mrs. Hudson belonged, had charge of the grave ritual and acted as flower bearers at the church. Interment was in Hankins cemetery.

She is survived by her husband, R. H. Hudson, N and W locomotive engineer, and one daughter, Miss Thelma Hudson.

She was a native of this section and spent most of her life
in and near Richlands. She was the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Beavers and is survived by four brothers,
Tom Beavers, of Richlands, Linzi Beavers, of Cedar Bluff, Otis Beavers, of Bandy, Henry Beavers, of War, W. Va., and one sister, Mrs. Clarence Stevenson, of Bandy.

Mrs. Hudson's death was attributed to high blood pressure, an ailment from which she had suffered for several months.
She is widely known throughout this section for the excellent cuisine of the restaurant, which she has operated here and elsewhere for a number of years. Some years ago Mr. and Mrs. Hudson had a restaurant business here and when the Dixie Hotel was built they were the first lessors of
of that hostelry. Later, they sold their business here and moved to Norton, where they operated a popular restaurant. A little over a year ago, they returned here and leased the Eagle Hotel which they have managed and operate every since.
