Word came of the seriousness of her condition Sunday and her father and sister, Mrs. W.C. COONEY, left immediately, reaching her beside a few hours before the end came. We have known Margaret since she was a small girl and we know of no one who had more friends. She was a good girl in every way, good natured and well liked. It seems sad to see one in the prime of life and strength in death, but still sadder to see one to whom life meant so much in her home. There is nothing more precious more everlasting than the radiant sunshine of a mother love and affection in the home and it leaves a vacant place which never can be filled. She lived at Mayetta and went to school here, grew to womanhood and was married March, 1918, to Ernest QUICK and has since resided in Goodland, Kan., the last station on the Rock Island railroad before it enters the Colorado line. She leaves a husband, two small children, father and mother, five brothers, four sisters, and a host of friends who mourn her sudden passing, one sister, Gertrude have preceded her June 17, 1921, of the same disease. The remains arrived in Topeka Monday afternoon accompanied by her husband and were taken to Holton Wednesday forenoon, and the services were held at 10 o'clock at St. Dominic's church, conducted by Father O'Neil. Interment took place in Mt. Calvary Cemetery. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/jackson/obits/q/quick1163gob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/ksfiles/ File size: 2.2 Kb
