Obituary From “Ottumwa Courier,” Tuesday, March 4, 1919:

WOMAN FALLS DEAD IN STREET

Mrs. Elizabeth Hein Stricken With Apoplexy On Way To Concert.

While on her way to the concert at the Grand opera house last evening at 7:25 o’clock, Mrs. Elizabeth Hein, 707 West Mechanic street, was stricken with apoplexy and died within a few minutes.

Mrs. Hein and her daughter, Miss Theresa, were passing the Willner store on East Main street when the former exclaimed, “Oh,” and fell forward, striking with her face upon the sidewalk. She was given immediate assistance and the ambulance was summoned, taking her to the Ottumwa hospital. She was dead, however, before the hospital was reached and the remains were then taken to the Daggett undertaking rooms.

Mrs. Hein was 57 years of age and is survived by her husband, J.L. Hein, two sons, Paul and Nick at home, and three daughters, Mrs. Katherine Veach, Mrs. Margaret Taylor of this city and Miss Theresa at home.

The funeral will be held Thursday at 2 p.m. with service at the residence, conducted by the Rev. Walter Fink. Interment in Shaul cemetery.
