Ionia Sentinel Standard, 4 & 7 Nov 1981

Retired teacher dies at 100 years

An Ionia centenarian died Tuesday afternoon in the Ionia Manor where she had
been a patient for some time.  Mabel E. Reynolds, 100, a retired teacher, was
born in Easton Township June 6, 1881, the daughter of William and Emma Reynolds.
 She was graduated from Ionia High School in 1899 and was believed to be the
oldest living graduate of the high school at the time of her death.

After teaching for several years after graduating from high school, she entered
Ferris State College, and then returned to teaching.  She taught for 24 years in
Calumet and 12 years in Clare before her retirement in 1945.  She returned to
Ionia after retiring and was active in the First United Methodist Church, the
Order of the Eastern Star, and the Daughters of the American Revolution.

She is survived by one brother, Roy Reynolds, of DesMoines, Wash., a nephew,
Douglas R. Welch, and a niece, Mrs. Sheldon (Jane) Crossman, both of Ionia.

Funeral services will be Thursday at 2 p.m. from the Leddick Funeral Home, the
Rev. Carl Hausermann officiating.  Burial will be in Easton Cemetery.  Members
of the family will be at the funeral home Wednesday night from 7 to 9 p.m.
