Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at 1:30 for Miss Jennie Van Heiden at the East Friesland Presbyterian Church with the Rev. C. F. Siemsen officiating. Prayer services were held earlier at the home of her sister, Mrs. Anna Marquardt. Burial was in the church cemetery.

Miss Van Heiden passed away Thursday evening at the home of her brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Freeseman after a lingering illness.

She was born September 16, 1905 to Jacobus and Jennie Fluth Van Heiden in Grundy County. She spent her entire life in the Ackley area, and was a member of the East Friesland Presbyterian Church.

Miss Van Heiden is survived by her two sisters, Mrs. Marquardt and Mrs. Freeseman, both of Ackley, and one brother, Charles Van Heiden of Waverly.
