GREENWOOD GLEANER (Greenwood, Wis.) 04/15/1915 Raymond, Alice A.
(7 NOV 1860 - 5 Apr 1915) Alice Amelia Mott,
wife of A.P. Raymond, died April 5, 1915, at her home in this
city. Deceased was born
in Pierrepont, St. Lawrence Co., N.Y., Nov. 7, 1860. She was
married to Mr. Raymond Sept. 1st , 1877. Two years later she became
a member of the Presbyterian Church of Potsdam, N.Y. Her membership
remained with that church the remainder of her life. In 1892 Mr.
Raymond moved with his family to Illinois, where they resided for
seven years. In 1899 the family
moved to this city (Greenwood, Clark County, Wis.) and have resided
her since, where they have been highly esteemed citizens. Mrs. Raymond was
the mother of seven children, four of who are still living and
three of who were in attendance at the funeral of their beloved
mother. Mrs. Raymond
leaves to mourn her sudden departure, a devoted husband, three
sons: W.S. of Aberdeen, Wash.; Clinton A. of Auburn, N.Y.; Ward A.
at school in Chicago and Mrs. S.D. St. John of Owen, Wis. She also
leaves her aged mother, four brothers and one sister residing in
Auburn, N.Y. Deceased was very
highly respected, a motherly, home loving woman and was loved by
all. She had planned to visit her daughter at Owen the day after
Easter, but at one o’clock Monday she was taken ill, about
four o’clock that morning passed from this life into the
great and glorious beyond to see and be with God. So sudden and
unexpected was the departure that many found it hard to believe or
realize when the sad news was reported. Mrs. Raymond was a
helpful worker in the Baptist Society during her residence here and
was highly respected by all. The funeral was
largely attended and services conducted at the home by Rev. S.E.
Sweet and Rev. S. Dunlop, pastor of the Baptist Church. Many
beautiful flowers added much to the decorations and the choir
rendered excellent music appropriate to the occasion. Interment was
made in the Greenwood Cemetery.
