At no time during her illness did she give up hope of recovery.

She came with her parents, brothers and sisters, to Dorchester in 1919. Three years she spent in the Dorchester High School, jolly, friendly, a favorite of all, and a very diligent student. On Oct. 9, 1924, she was married to Claude B. Tuttle, of Sand Rock, and they lived there three years when they moved to Milwaukee where they have since resided.

Two children were born to them, Elroy, 3 years and 11 months old, and Bonny Lou, 19 months old, who with her husband, survive.

She is one of eleven children and the first to break the family circle.
