YOUNG MOTHER DIES AT ANN ARBOR JAN. 31
A Lake Odessa Girl for Years,Leaves Husband, Four Girls and Mother

Following an operation at Ann Arbor, Mrs Zella Bennett Nelson died last Saturday 
Jan 31, and the body was brought to Lake Odessa for burial.

The funeral was held at the M.E. church where for many years Mrs. Nelson was a 
member and in which society she mingled in her girlhood. The sermon was by the 
pastor Rev. A.F. Nagler and Mrs O.C. Russ ad Mrs A.J. Dann sang.

She was a prominent member of the Rebekahs while living in Lake Odessa and 
retained her membership in that organization.

The dearest of memories linger in the minds of her friends at her passing. She 
said to a friend that she felt all would be well but in case she did not recover 
from an operation, she was ready to go. This is a cheering thought to her loved 
ones.

                             OBITUARY
