OBITUARY - The Clinton Republican  03/26/1903

Mrs. Lucinia Munro who has been a sufferer for the past year or more from sarcoma, 
having been treated at Maple Rapids and Ann Arbor, but receiving no help, died at her 
home on west Main street Tuesday morning, aged 34 years, 8 months, 9 days.  Mrs. Munro 
was converted and joined the M.E. church in Flushing at the early age of 9 years and 
remained a faithful member of the same until a few years ago when she united by card 
with the Fairfield U.B. church.  She married Bedent Munro July 4, 1887.  To them were 
born one daughter and three sons, the youngest being 4 months old, all of whom with 
her husband survive her.  About 5 years ago she united with the L.O.T.M. carrying a 
policy of $1,000 of which she has received $150 disability claim.  Miss Munro has 
shown a great amount of patience for one who has suffered for as long as she has.  
She leaves a host of friends to mourn her loss.  Funeral will be held at the M.E. 
church today.
