Obituary
The people of Lyon county and particularly
of Agnes City township, were pained to learn of the death of Mrs. Caroline
Sheetz, wife of Mr. A. Sheetz whose residence is about four miles north of
this city. Mrs. Sheetz was born in Shenandoah county, Va., about 48
years ago. She was stick only a few weeks. Her death was not expected
until a few days before the sad termination. To her husband and family
their loss is irreparable. No better or more faithful wife, mother
or neighbor live in the county. She leaves four children, the eldest
the wife of Geo. E. Withington. Two daughters and one son are at home with
their afflicted father. She died as she lived in the full faith of
a better world. |
