Note from Submitter:
Mrs. H. K. Wright is my paternal grandmother.  Hiram K. Wright is my paternal 
grandfather.  Mrs. Joseph Resch is the mother of Mrs. H. K. (Anna) Wright.  
They are all buried together with Joseph Resch (I haven't located his 
obituary yet) in Pine Grove Cemetery in Cass Lake, Cass County, Minnesota.

OBITUARY: Mrs. H. K. Wright, a resident of Cass Lake for over fifty years, 
and a member of one of the pioneer families of Cass Lake, passed away Tuesday 
afternoon at her home while taking her afternoon nap.  She was found by her 
husband, who had been asleep upstairs and neighbors with whom she was to have 
played cards early in the afternoon.  Mr. Wright has been helping out at the 
Endion Hotel as night clerk, and was sleeping through the day.  Mrs. Wright 
never fully recovered from the attack of pneumonia last winter, which 
affected her heart.  

Anna Marie Resch was born at Pierz, Minnesota on the 26th of September, 1884. 
 She came with her parents to Cass Lake in 1905.  On August 26, 1907, she was 
married to Hiram K. Wright, and they have made Cass Lake their home since 
that time.

Funeral services will be held Friday morning from St. Charles Catholic 
Church, and interment will be made in Pine Grove cemetery.

Pallbearers will be her five sons, Fred, Don, Charles, LeRoy, and Robert, and 
her son-in-law, Tom O'Brien.

She is survived by five sons and two daughters, Fred of Los Angeles, Cal., 
Mabel O'Brien of Cuyuna, Donald of Fort Dodge, Iowa, LeRoy of Duluth, Charles 
of Walker, Robert of St. Paul and Margaret Anne Sheehan of Minneapolis.  

She is also survived by five sisters, Margaret Zenniel of Park Rapids, Clara 
Dugas of Cass Lake, Katherine Kunkel of Marshalltown, Iowa, Eva Kunkel of 
Haverhill, Iowa, and Josephine Robbins of Stockton, California.

The tragedy of her death at this time was emphasized by plans for the 
celebration of the Wright's Golden Wedding on Monday, August 26, when the 
whole community planned to honor one of its best liked couples.
