The Portland Observer, Thursday, December 19, 1940

Mrs. Walter Emerick, 58, who formerly lived in Portland, passed away at her 
home in Howard City, early Friday morning.  She had been sick for several 
months.

Funeral services conducted by Rev. L. M. Rigelman, were held Sunday afternoon 
at the home of her father, Charles Hyland, where the body was brought Friday.

Besides the father, she is survived by the husband; one son, N. Z. Shattuck; 
one sister, Mrs. Myrtle DeleVergne; three brothers, Ward, Eston, and Fay 
Hyland.  Dale E. Hyland, for whom the local American Legion post was named, 
was killed in the First World War.  Bearers were selected from that 
organization and were F. A. Wheeler, Harry Owen, James Iiams, Oliver Tschopp, 
Kent Cotton, and Ben Sykes.  Burial was made in Portland cemetery.

When in Portland Mr. and Mrs. Emerick were employed by the Ypsilanti-Reed 
Furniture Co.  After moving to Howard City, they purchased property there and 
were engaged in tourist cabin business in which they were very successful.  

John Emerick and Michael Emerick, both of Boonton, New Jersey, brothers of 
Walter Emerick, came to Portland for the services.
