CALLED TO HEAVENLY HOME

MRS. THOMAS CROCKETT PASSED AWAY AT MOROCCO THANKSGIVING DAY. The death of Mrs. Mary Crockett, widow of Thomas Ctockett, occurred Thursday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Jean Perrizgo, in Morocco, where she had been making her home since the death of her husband in this city August 29 of the present year. Mrs. Crockett’s death* was the result of a complication of diseases with which she had suffered for some time, but her condition only became alarming a few days ago. Her age was sev-7enty-four years. The deceased, with her husband, made this city her residence a great many years, and had been a resident of Jasper county for over fifty years prior to going to Morocco to make her home. \ During her long residence here she was loved and respected by everyone who knew her and her passing will be the cause of much general sorrow. The deceased is survived by four children: Martin Crockett, of Portland, Ore.; Mrs. Jean Perrigo, of Morocco: Robert E. Crockett, of Detroit, Mich.; and George Crockett, of Rensselaer. Two brothers, living in Illinois, also survive Mrs. Crockett in addition to many other relatives. \ Funeral services will be conduct- ' ed at Morocco Saturday morning at ten-thirty o’clock and interment will be made in the Crockett cemetery beside the grave of her husband. ' Lillian Dahncke and Ruby Pettet, who are seniors in the Rensselaer high school, spent Thanksgiv- - ihg with their parents in Wheatfield and Walker township.
