From Ames Milepost July 1933

Miss Katie Crane, 64, died at her apartments on Main street, Nevada, Sunday about noon, after a lingering illness, several weeks of which she had been cared for at Iowa sanitarium.

The funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at 3:00 from the Methodist church, of which she was a longtime and most devoted member, in charge of her pastor, George A. Lawton. Interment will be in the Nevada cemetery.

In spite of her misfortunes she was uncomplaining and kept on at her task until illness made it impossible for her longer to care for herself.

She was well known about the city, admired and respected for her many splendid qualities and characteristics and she will be most kindly remembered by a wide circle of friends.

The only brother, R. D. Crane, with his wife, came down from Hampton Sunday afternoon, called by the death of the sister.
