Mrs. Frank Fuss passed away at a local hospital Thursday [December 18, 1930] morning following an operation of a very serious nature. She has been ailing for some time and an operation was resorted to as a relief from her suffering. Mrs. Fuss was a lady admired by all who knew her and her many friends were deeply shocked when the news of her sudden death was made known.

Anna Wiggins Fuss was born in Estherville 32 years ago, but moved to Graettinger with her parents in early childhood. They later moved to Goldfield where she made her home until her marriage.

She is survived by her husband, her four-year-old son, Frank Jr., her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Wiggins of Goldfield, two brothers Arthur and William Wiggins of Eagle Grove and three sisters, Mrs. Earl Richards of Sibley, Florence Wiggins of Hastings, Minn., and Irene Wiggins of Goldfield.

Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at the Presbyterian church of which deceased had been a member since childhood. Rev. Arthur Bailey was assisted in conducting the services by Rev. Yearnd of the Union Baptist church. Interment was made in the Oak Hill cemetery. (Vindicator and Republican, Estherville, IA, December 24, 1930)
