Death of Betsy Pickard
Word has been received at Pickard, announcing the death of Betsy Pickard,
age about 80 years, had died at the home of her sister in Danville, Illinois.
Mrs. Pickard had lived at Pickard the greater part of her life, her husband
blind for eighteen years, he dying last October. Mrs. Pickard had been
in fairly good health and the announcement of her death came as a surprise.
She left Pickard with her husband last August and went to Lapel from where
they went to Danville. She is survived by two sisters, nine children and
several grand and great grand children. She died Sunday and the funeral
took place on Tuesday. She was a life long member of the Methodist church.
Mrs. Malinda Pickard, of Pickard, went to Danville to attend the funeral.
(NOTE: Betsy was the widow of Samuel S. Willis)
