Belding Banner - Wed. Sept. 27, 1916

GERTRUDE WILSON HAS PASSED AWAY

Miss Gertrude E. Wilson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David E. Wilson, and sister 
of Wilbur S. Wilson, Sumner H. Wilson and Mrs. Brinton F. Hall, died at the 
home of her parents in Belding Friday, September 22, 1916.

The funeral was held Sunday, September 24, the services being conducted by the 
Rev. Allan J. Blair, of the Congregational church.

The interment was made in the River Ridge cemetery.

Miss Wilson was born in Belding November 25, 1880. She graduated from the 
Belding High school in 1899 and in the fall of 1900 she entered the University 
of Michigan, specializing in the languages and graduating from that institution 
in 1904 with the degree of A. B.

In the fall of 1904 she began teaching in the Belding schools, and during the 
last nine years she has taught Latin and German in the High school, only giving 
up her work at the closing of the schools in June of the present year, when she 
was granted a leave of absence on account of failing health.

The deceased, whose life was spent in Belding, possessed a most excellent 
character and her unassuming and gentle ways and manner won for her legions of 
friends who will regret her untimely death in the prime of life.
