                              OBITUARY

union was born one daughter, Corinne, who has been her mother's constant 
companion and has tenderly cared for her.
 
Mr.George departed this life in 1909. She was married to Walter Post of Lake 
Odessa, September 13, 1910.

Mr.Post brought her, four motherless children and she was a devoted mother to 
them and saw to it that they were well brought up along with her own beloved 
daughter as their lives all attest.

In 1911 they moved to the farm one mile northwest of Mulliken where they resided 
until Mr.Post's failing health demanded that he should ease up on heavy toil and 
he turned the helm over to his son Stanley, and they moved into Mulliken. 
Mr.Post preceded her in death 6 years ago.

Those to survive are the daughter Corinne, Mrs.Rush Engelstad of Chicago, 
Mrs.Vera McRoberts of Muskegon, Dr.Kenneth Post of Ithaca,New York and Stanley

Rapids. Also a number  of nieces and nephews and a host of friends.
