Dec 20, 1929 Storm Thought Cause of Woman’s Death While waiting in the car with her daughter and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Warren Benstead, east of Ferguson’s corners, Thursday evening during a traffic blockade Mrs. Eva Winslow, 65, exclaimed, “I’m dying”, and expired immediately. She was taken to the home of Dr. W. H. Ferguson, and an Ionia physician called, who pronounced her death due to heart disease. Mr. and Mrs. Benstead and small children, Gladys and Dale, and Mrs. Winslow were en route to Lansing, where Dale was to be placed in the hospital for an operation, and Mrs. Winslow was holding the little boy on her lap, and made no struggle as death overtook her. It is thought that excitement over the traffic congestion caused the heart attack. Mrs. Winslow, the widow of the late Nathan Winslow, who died in 1925, was born in Saranac, where she lived the greater part of her life. She resided for a time in Prairie Creek and for the past 11 years in Ionia. Besides her daughter, Mrs. Benstead, she leaves a sister, Mrs. Louise Barber, Lansing; two brothers, George Symington, Lansing, and Myron, of Newaygo; one step-son and one step-daughter, Bert Winslow and Mrs. Charles Conner, of Easton. Rev. F. J. Fitch will conduct the funeral services from the home of the daughter, 313 Fargo street, Sunday afternoon at 1:30. The interment will be made in the Easton Cemetery.
