Beckham County, OK - Obits: Margaret Jarvis, 1922 02 August 2008 Submitted by: delma25@pldi.net (Delma Tindell) ********************************************************************* USGENWEB NOTICE Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ********************************************************************* JARVIS, MARGARET (9 Feb 1922, Thursday, Sayre Headlight, Sayre, Beckham Co, OK): Mrs. Bertha Wagner, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, mother of Mrs. Howard Jarvis, arrived in this city yesterday noon, called here by the serious illness of her daughter. (23 Feb 1922, Thursday, Sayre Headlight, Sayre, Beckham Co, OK): MRS. HOWARD JARVIS IS DEAD. Passed Away Tuesday Afternoon After Illness from Pneumonia. Mention has been made in previous issues of the serious illness of Mrs. Howard Jarvis, from an attack of pneumonia, but last week the report was that her condition was materially improved, and the announcement of her death Tuesday afternoon was a shock to a large majority of her friends in this city. A week ago, it was thought that she was on the road to recovery, but during the past few days her condition became gradually worse. Monday night it was discovered that as the result of pneumonia puss had gathered in her right side and early Tuesday morning it became necessary to lance this gathering. However, this failed to produce the hoped for relief, and she passed away about the middle of Tuesday afternoon. Funeral service will be held from the Catholic church in this city at 10:00 o'clock Friday forenoon, with interment at the Doxey-Sayre cemetery. Mrs. Jarvis was a native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and came to this city with her husband about eight years ago, and since that time has made a host of personal friends who will join with the Headlight in extending their heartfelt sympathy to her bereaved husband and relatives. --------------------------------------------------- Return to Beckham County Archives: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/beckham/beckham.html
