Mrs. John Heinken died at her home in Pleasant Valley township on Tuesday of last week. Funeral services were held at the Lutheran church Friday afternoon at one o'clock and they were largely attended. The cause of Mrs. Heinken's death was heart failure. She was apparently well up to within a few minutes of when she died. She was overcome while talking to one of the neighbors in the yard. By the time she was carried into the house she had expired. Mrs. Heinken was 86 years old and she was a long time resident of the county. She is survived by four children. Her sons John, Sam and Claus live in this county and her daughter Mrs. Fred Hostetter lives in Bingham Lake, Minn.
