Such was the passing of Mrs. Kristen Rasmussen, aged 63 years, who came from her home in Denmark several months ago to visit for a time with her children, in this country, among them being a son, John Rasmussen, of Easton township. Mrs. Rasmussen had visited with her children, Peter Rasmussen and Mrs. John Peterson, of Gowen; John, of Easton, and two other sons, in Detroit, when she was taken sick while at the homes of the latter in Detroit and was removed to a hospital where she underwent an operation for the removal of gall stones, never recovering from the effects of the operation. Her death occurred on Wednesday of last week in a hospital at Detroit. The remains were brought to the home of her son, John, in Easton township and the funeral services were held from the residence Friday afternoon with burial in Easton cemetery. Mrs. Rasmussen left a daughter in Denmark, when she came to this country and it had been her intention and plan to return to her daughter and home in her native land after visiting here for several months more.
