MRS. R.A. FIDDICK DIES,
ILL FOR SEVERAL YEARS
Mrs. R. A. fiddick, 65, died at her home Tuesday afternoon at 4;30 o'clock after a lingering illness. Her health began to fail about 30 years ago and she has not been entirely well in all of that time. About two years ago she became worse and in June 1942, she had a major operation, from which she never fully recovered.
Elsie Willson was born at Eyota, Minnesota, on September 14, 1878. She was the daughter of J.R. and Anna Richardson-Willson.
When she was about 16 years of age she moved to Osage with her parents and this has since been her home. She attended the country school at Eyota; the public school of Osage, and the Cedar Valley Seminary, from which she was graduated, completing the business course.
She was employed as a sales woman in various stores for a number of years, prior to her marriage to Richard A. Fiddick, on September 19, 1912.
One child was born to Mr. and Mrs. Fiddick; a daughter, Anne, who is now Mrs. Martin Schaeferle Jr.'
Mrs. Fiddick joined the Osage Baptist church on February 3, 1896, and as long as her health permitted, was very active in all of the affairs of the church.
She was also a member of Bethany chapter, O.E.S. and held offices in that organization over the years.
She was of an unusually pleasant, kind disposition, and enjoyed her neighbors and friends. She was a member of various small social groups from which she derived much pleasure.
Surviving are her husband; their daughter, Mrs. Schaeferle; her grandson, Martin Schaeferle 3rd; and one sister, Mrs. Charles Gaffney, who is now the only survivor of the family.
Funeral services will be held Saturday afternoon at the Champion Funeral Home, conducted by the Rev. Stiles Lessly, and burial will be made in the Osage cemetery.
