".... This community was shocked Monday evening to hear that Mrs. Ollie Trammer (sic. Olive Zanna GROVE TROMMER) was dead. She had come from her home in Montana with her husband and children two months ago to visit her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.G. GROVE (sic. Andrew G. GROVE and Mary GROVE). The husband had gone back and Mrs. TRAMMER and children remained. A little babe (sic. Oliver G. TROMMER, 1905 - Aug. 17, 1949, buried next to his mother) was born three weeks ago and the mother was apparently on the road to recovery. Monday she was bright and hopeful all day, planning when she would be able to return to her Montana home, but about six o'clock she was stricken with heart failure and in half an hour she had gone to her Heavenly home. Messages were sent to the husband and to a brother and sister in Colorado. The deepest sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved husband and parents and to those who cared for her so faithfully and to the five little ones who so much need a mother's care."
