Lake Odessa Wave - Times - August 26, 1925
          OBITUARY

   Alvira M. Eldridge was born October 14, 1878 and departed this life August 18,
1925 at the age of forty-
seven years, ten months and four days.  She was united in marriage to Charles
Hummel, March 8, 1897 and to 
this union were born two children -- Mrs. Wm. VanTassel of this place and Loretta at
home.  She was a patient 
sufferer tor two long weeks and we hope she has gone to be with Jesus and meet the
loved ones gone 
before.

   She leaves to mourn her loss, husband, two daughters, father and mother, three
brothers, one sister, two 
grandchildren, three others preceding her to the better world, besides a host of
other relatives and friends.

   Mother's loving hands will be missed and her comforting words.

We have lost our darling mother,

She has bid us an adieu.

She has gone to life in Heaven,

And her form is lost to view,

Oh, that dear one how we loved her-

Oh, how much her love we miss,

But an angel came down for her

And took her.

   The funeral was very largely attended at the home on First Avenue Friday, August
21st, Rev. A. L. Spafford 
preached and Mrs. Bera Mourer sang. Burial in Lakeside cemetery.

   Those from away to attend the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Eldridge, Mrs.
Frank Hunter, and Mrs. 
Vantassel of Carson City, Mr. and Mrs. James Hummel, Mrs. Ona Hinkley, Mr. and Mrs.
Ernest Appleman of 
Nashville, Mrs. and Mrs. Guy Hummel of Charlotte, Mrs. and Mrs. Robt. Eldridge of
Ionia, Mrs. and Mrs. Milo 
Sutherland, Sheridan, Mrs. and Mrs. Fred Gibson of Big Rapids and Harry Eldridge of
Ionia.
