MRS. JULIUS HUBERT

Mrs. Bertha Hubert, well known resident of the town of Brockway, died at her 
home in Pleasant View at 7 o’clock on Christmas eve, December 24, 1945, at the 
age of 56 years, 11 months and 24 days.  She had been in failing health since 
last December and for the last six months of her life was confined to her bed 
suffering of a malady for which there was no relief, altho everything that 
loving hands could do for her comfort was done.  She was a patient sufferer, 
never complaining and always give her friends a cheerful welcome when they 
called.

“Betsy” as she was called will be sadly missed by all.  Of a happy 
disposition, always a willing worker and ready to do more than her share among 
us at our social gatherings at all times, she was a good neighbor and friend.  
She was a great lover of flowers, and she and her flowers will be long in our 
memory.

Her sister, Mrs. Edward Lyon, was at her bedside the last two weeks and a 
different times during her illness as was her son Richard, who returned from

Erickson, of Chisholm, Minn.  She leaves three brothers, Ole and Pete
