Writing poetry is almost a
"way of life" for Mrs. Gentry.
In 1954 she won first place
honors in the poetry division for
a prayer poem submitted in
keeping with the golden anniv-
ersary celebration of the West
Virginia Federation of Wom-
en's Club. The poem was pub-
lished in the official program
for the 1954 convention held in
Wheeling.
According to Mrs. Gentry," I
seldom keep a copy of anything
'I write" and she recalls an
incident involving a request by
one of the Peterstown Volun-
tary Department Fire-Aids who
telephoned her at 6 o'clock
one evening and needed a poem
by 7:30 p.m. to read in honor of
a member who had been mar-
ried and was moving from the
vicinity. The short-order re-
quest was filled.
In addition to poetry, she has
written short stories and one-
act dramas for various organ-
izations.
