Hello Everyone,

A while back I promised to get this obit for Shauna on our list. Finally I
got to the library to find it. Below the obit is an outline of Milcha's
family. Thought there might be others interested.

Mrs. Milkey Elizabeth Riddle, who would have observed her ninety-fifth
birthday Aug. 1, died at 10:30 o'clock Thursday morning at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Elmer Frownfelter, at 311 Whedbee street. Mrs. Riddle had
been in poor health for the past six months. Her death was due to
complications of old age.

Mrs. Riddle had made her home in Fort Collins with her daughter since 1924.
She was born Aug. 1, 1837, in Mercer county, PA., and in addition to her
daughter is also survived by a son, Jacob Riddle of Ft. Collins, and several
grandchildren.

Mrs. Riddle, who joined a church early in her life, but whose habit it was to
attend the different churches in the city in turn, continued her religious
activities until she could no longer go out. She was always interested in
current happenings and was well able to join in discussions of current events
until the time of her illness.
