She was united in marriage to Leo Reburn on July 22, 1912, who with one daughter, Gertrude, at home, a sister, Mrs. Wm. McMillian of Elbow, Canada, and a brother Louis at home are left to mourn her death.

Mrs. Reburn’s genial disposition and kind heartedness won for her many friends, who will keenly feel the loss of a kind and loving friend and neighbor. The largely attended funeral was held Monday morning at 9:00 o’clock at St. Joseph’s Catholic church, Rev, Father Hayes, the pastor, officiating, interment being made in the Catholic cemetery.
