From the Sioux Center Nieuwsblad, March 20, 1918: Hull, Iowa section:

Verl. week overleed alhier Mrs. G. v. d. Vliet na eene korte ongesteldheid aan pneumonia. Zij had een zwak hart, hetgeen naar wij hoorden meer de oorzaak van het verscheiden was, dan de ziekte. De overledene laat een echtgenoot en twee jonge kinderen achter. De begrafnis werd gehouden vanuit de Geref. kerk.

Translation: Last week Mrs. G. v. d. Vliet died here after a brief illness from pneumonia. She had a weak heart, which we heard was more the cause of her demise than the disease. The deceased leaves a husband and two young children. The funeral was held from the Reformed church.
