Friends and relatives here were shocked to learn of the death of Mrs. Lorene CESSNA SHREVE, aged 26, which occurred Sunday evening at her home in Mishawaka. Death was due to child birth.
Lorene CESSNA, daughter of L. E. and Hattie CESSNA, was born on a farm four miles west of Rochester November 29, 1903. She attended the public schools in the Rochester community, leaving here seven years ago to go to Mishawaka. In June 1925 in that city she was married to Vivian SHREVE.
Surviving are her husband, two daughters, Betty Lou [SHREVE] and Marijo [SHREVE[; her mother, Mrs. Hattie CESSNA, of Kokomo; four brothers, John [CESSNA] and Otto [CESSNA], west of Rochester; Dale [CESSNA] of Chicago and Keith [CESSNA] of Mishawaka; three sisters, Mrs. Doris MORTHMORE, of Kokomo, Mrs. Alma DAVIS, of Seattle, Washington and Miss Minnie CESSNA of Mishawaka; two nieces and six nephews also survive.
Funeral services will be held Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock at the Baptist Church in Rochester. Rev. BOUWMAN, pastor of the First Baptist Church in Mishawaka, will have charge of the services and will be assisted by Rev. J. B. GLEASON. Burial will be made in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery here.
