Mrs. Nelle Dannefer

Dannefer, Topeka; two brothers, Ray Shideler and Jay Shideler, both of Topeka; one sister, Mrs. Ray White, Topeka; and two grandchildren.
She was a devoted mother and wife and a patient sufferer, always thinking of her family, rather than her own illness, and up to the last was planning for their future. She was always thoughtful of other sick friends and was ready to write cheery letters to those ill and shut in. To spread sunshine was her hearts desire. A beautiful tribute to her was given by the Ren. Schwartz.
Everything that medical science could do was given to restore health and her devoted family was at her bedside continually all during her illness.
