MISS IRMA JANE BUCK

A lifelong resident of Warriors Mark, died Monday afternoon at 4.30

weeks, death being attributed to a complication of ailments.  She was a

Warriors Mark for many years, and was born Nov. 4, 1884, and resided

Nearhoof of Warriors Mark, Mrs. Hazel D. Oliver of Springfield, Mo., 
and Mrs. Esther B. Fisher of Pittsburgh, Pa.  She united with the 
Methodist church under the ministry of Rev. E. M. Aller in 1902 and was 
a charter member of the Star Bible class, and served as treasurer since 
1925.  Some years ago she was organist of the church and sang in the 
choir.  When the war came on in 1941, Miss Buck contributed the service 
flag for the church and faithfully attended to the roll of service men 
and women ever since.  Friends are being received at the home in 
Warriors Mark.
