Obituary- Van Vleck, Harriet

Mrs. T.J. Van Vleck Buried Here Yesterday
Death came very quietly to Mrs. Thad J. Van Vleck last Saturday while she was at the home of her sister, Mrs. John A. Rich of Slater, Mo, having died a few minutes after leaving the house to go into the yard. She had left Rossville only about ten days previous after accompanying the body of her husband, T.J. Van Vleck, to Rossville from their home at San Bernardino, Calif, for burial on Feb. 6. His death occurred January 31.
The body was brought to Ross¬ville Sunday night and held until the arrival of her son Joseph from New Brunswick, N.J. Funeral services were held yesterday at 11 o’clock in the Methodist church conducted by Rev. R.S. McCulloch. Interment was made in the family lot in the city cemetery.
Hattie E. Reynolds was born in Winchendon, Worchester county, Mass., August 7, 1857 and had passed her 63rd birthday when death came February 26. She was united in marriage to Thadeus Van Vleck at Joliet, Ill February 11, 1878. To this union four children were born of whom two sons, J.R. Van Vleck of New Brunswick, N.J. and E.M. Van Vleck, of San Bernardino, Calif., survive.
Two sisters, Mrs. J.M. Snyder of Portland, Ore., and Mrs. John A. Rich of Slater, Mo., also mourn her departure.
The bereaved relatives have the sympathy of the friends and for¬mer neighbors of the family in this community, who greatly ad¬mired and respected the departed lady whose home here in the ear¬ly days was always open to young and old and an example for clean and wholesome living.
