Portland Observer, 31 May 1923

The death of Mrs. Calista Curry, wife of James B. Curry, supervisor of Danby 
township, occurred Tuesday forenoon, following a stroke of paralysis with which 
she was stricken several weeks ago, a second stroke making its appearance a 
week ago last Sunday from which she failed to rally.  Funeral services will be 
held at the residence this afternoon, in charge of Rev. Bancroft.  Interment 
was made in Portland cemetery.

Mrs. Calista Stiffler was born in Portland in 1864 and in July 1883, was united 
in marriage to James B. Curry.  Shortly after their marriage Mr. Curry took his 
bride to Danby where they have since resided, with the exception of two years 
spent in Ionia where Mr. Curry was employed at the court house.  Besides the 
husband two sons, William, of Detroit, and Lee, at home, survive.  Also one 
brother, George Stiffler, of Portland, and one half-brother, John Hitchcock, of 
Lansing.

Mrs. Curry was one of Portland and Danby’s highly esteemed and well loved 
matrons and will be greatly missed by a large number of warm friends who all 
extend their sympathy to the sorrowing family.

She was a member of the Congregational Guild, Order of Eastern Stars and the 
Gleaners.
