BRIDENSTINE Dies Suddenly

Mrs. Charles LESHER, 306 W. Washington, received word Tuesday of the death of her son-in-law, K.J. BRIDENSTINE, who died suddenly of a heart attack while on a vacation tour at Taiwan.

Mr. and Mrs. BRIDENSTINE were on a tour including Japan, China, Bangkok, Thailand; and were enroute to Seoul, South Korea, when he was stricken.

The body will be returned to their home at Boulder, Colo., where last rites are pending.

BRIDENSTINE was the husband of the former Margaret LESHER.

He taught accounting at Parsons College before joining the Federal Bureau of Investigation in 1935. He retired from that position three years ago and since then headed the probation office in Boulder.

Survivors include his wife; two sons, Dr. James BRIDENSTINE, stationed at the Naval Hospital in San Diego, Calif., and Timothy at home; one daughter, Mrs. Kay HERBST, Lisbon, Portugal where her husband is with the Portuguese Airlines; four grandchildren, two sisters and a brother.

Mrs. LESHER will go to Boulder to attend the services and be with her daughter. The address is 1420 Sierra Drive, Boulder, Colo., 80302.
