Mrs. Sheyer had lived 71 years and four months, and raised a family of girls, all of whom are happily married and living in Reno and Carson. Mrs. Sheyer was the mother of Mrs. Sol Levy and Mrs. Henry Morris of Reno and Mrs. Cohn of Carson. Besides her daughters she leaves a large circle of intimate friends to mourn her death. She was a pioneer woman of Carson, having lived there in the sixties. Well does the writer remember her kindly face and words of good cheer years ago when he was a boy living neighbor to Mrs. Sheyer in Carson. Her husband, Jacob Sheyer, was one of Carson's prominent merchants. He died about twenty years ago, surrounded by his immediate family and twenty grandchildren Mrs. Sheyer was buried this afternoon at 3 o'clock from the residence of Sol Levy, on Third street, between West and Sierra, and the funeral was very largely attended.
