Mrs. Butsch had been enjoying fairly good health until last Tuesday when she was stricken and compelled to take to her bed. Her condition was not considered serious and news of her death was a shock to her legion of friends. The deceased was born in Benzinger Township, March 19, 1850 and was nearing 74 years of age. She was united in marriage to John Butsch, April 19, 1875. Her husband passed away in October 1903. She is survived by the following children: Mrs. Anna DeLoach, Los Angeles, California, Leonard, Washington, D.C. and Mrs. Fred Pipolo, Pittsburgh, Sylvester and Edward of St. Marys. Six grandchildren also survive. She was a member of St. Francis, Sacred Heart Branch, Altar Society of the St. Marys Church, Women's Relief Corps and German Beneficial Union. The funeral will be held Saturday morning at 9 o'clock. Services will be conducted in the Sacred Heart Church, followed by interment in the Catholic cemetery.
