Ionia Daily Sentinel-Standard, 2 Jan 1932

Just as guests, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Knight, of Belding, and Mr. and Mrs. George 
Hoyt and granddaughter, Donna, of Orleans, waited at the table of Mr. and Mrs. 
Alba Face, at Orleans New Year’s day, for one of the party to say grace, Alba 
Face, the host, slumped in his chair a death victim of heart disease.  Mr. Face 
was 74 years of age and one of the most active men of the township.  His death 
shocked the entire community as none knew that he had the heart ailment to 
which his death was attributed.

Mr. Face was a native of Clinton county, coming to Orleans with his parents, 
Mr. and Mrs. William James Face, 72 years ago and had lived in the township 
since, spending the past 45 years on the two farms that he owns, the residence 
of one being within the village limits of Orleans.  In stock he specialized in 
Ramboulette sheep and in crops he specialized in beans.

Funeral services will be conducted at the Orleans Methodist Episcopal church 
Monday morning at 11 o’clock by Rev. H. S. Ellis.  Burial will be in the 
Orleans cemetery.

Mr. Face is survived by the widow, formerly Miss Edith M. Budd, to whom he was 
married 43 years ago; a daughter, Mrs. R. E. Allen, who lives across the road 
from the parents’ home; a son, Erma, of Orleans; two sisters, Mrs. C. W. Knight 
of Belding, and Miss Elsie Face, of Long Beach, Cal., and three brothers, 
Luther and Arba Face, of Belding, and Jay Face of Aberdeen, South Dakota.
