"Mrs. Wm. Coffitt Passes Away at Florida Home

Old friends of Mrs. William Coffitt will be saddened to learn of her 
health in Jacksonville, Florida early Sunday morning. Mrs. Coffitt had 
been ill with a heart ailment for several years, and had been in a hospital 
for four weeks previous to her death. Burial was at Jacksonville.

Frances Runser, born November 17, 1882, was married to William Coffitt in 
Heron Lake in September 1904. They lived on a farm south of Fulda until 
their retirement, when they moved to Fulda.

In 1950, they moved to Jacksonville to be near their daughters. Mr. 
Coffitt's death occurred May 16, 1955. They were the parents of three 
daughters: (Nellie) Mrs. Theron West, whose death occurred at Boyd in 
May, 1949; (Wilma) Mrs. Russell Turner of Jacksonville; and (Velma) 
Mrs. Charles McKenney, also of Jacksonville.

Mrs. Coffitt had been a member of the Fulda R.N.A. Lodge for more than 
fifty years.

Sincere sympathy goes to the members of Mrs. Coffitt's family."
