Mrs. Lottie Bogert, 79, died suddenly Saturday afternoon following a heart 
attack at her home on Higbee Street.  She was seen in the yard at her home

neighbor, Mrs. W. Walter Atherton.  Mrs. Bogert was born August 18, 1884 in 
Bloomer township, Montcalm County, daughter of Henry and Mary Halsted, and

the oldest active member of the church.  She did practical nursing until

Rapids; three brothers, Walter Halsted of North Plains township, Clinton of 
Lyons, and Ford of Ionia, now in Florida.  Two brothers and one sister
