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.
