Mary Ann Beckrich, 80, a resident of Eagle Creek township for 74 years, 
died at the home of her nephew, Mathias Beckrich, at 9 o'clock Monday 
Night. Miss Beckrich has been in ill health for the past three years 
and confined to her bed for more then two months.  Her death was 
attributed to the infirmities of age.

of her parents when she moved to Mathias Beckrich residence to spend 
the remainder of her life.  Her death marks the passing of the last 
member of the family of three sisters and two brothers.
Funersal Services were conducted by the Rev. Father Marks at St. 
Mark's church at 9 o'clock this morning.  Burial was in St. Mark's
