Klinke, Rosa Maria (1 OCT 1864 - 14 FEB 1890)

Died, at her home in the town of York, Clark County, Feb. 14, 1890, Mrs. Rosa Maria Klinke, wife of John W. Klinke.

The deceased's maiden name was Rosa Maria Krejci. She was born Oct. 1st 1864, and was married to John W. Klinke June 19, 1883. She leaves a husband and three children, and her parents, four brothers and one sister to mourn her loss. The funeral took place from the Catholic Church in this city on Monday, the 17th.

The deceased was a woman of lovely character, of whom it can truthfully be said, "she had not an enemy." Her neighbors, as well as her devoted husband and relatives, will miss her from their midst. She was but 26 years old, a time in her life when the future looked brightest. To be called away so young is indeed sad.
