MRS CLYDE DYKE SUCCUMBS MAY 14
Following a long illness, Mrs. Mamie Edna Dyke, 40, died yesterday, May 14,
1933, at her home, 967 Lighthouse Avenue, Pacific Grove. She was the wife of
Clyde Dyke, prominent Monterey and Pacific Grove druggist.
Although not unexpected, Mrs. Dyke’s death came as a shock to her many
friends. She had been ill for several years and for the last year had been
confined to her home. Despite her long illness, Mrs. Dyke was always in
cheerful spirits and keenly interested in local, national and world affairs.
A native of Missouri, Mrs. Dyke was born at Kahoka, July 26, 1892. She came
to California about 25 years ago, residing at first in Red Bluff with her
family and later in Modoc County, Roseville, Shasta City, Stockton, Stirling
City and Newman. She was a registered pharmacist.
With her husband, Mrs. Dyke came to the peninsula from Newman seven years
ago and the couple has lived in Pacific Grove since.
Funeral services will be held at the Christian Church in Pacific Grove
tomorrow afternoon at 2 o’clock with Rev. Lee Sadler officiating. Interment
will be in El Carmelo cemetery.
Besides her husband, Mrs. Dyke is survived by her father, James F. Sisson of
Red Bluff; three brothers, Wade Sisson of Dixon, California, and Frank and
Hugh Sisson of Sacramento and three sisters, Mrs. E. E. Harrold and Mrs.
Elmer Snyder of Aromos and Mrs. J. C. Chapman of Red Bluff. – Pacific Grove
newspaper.
(Mrs. Dyke was well known here. She was employed as saleslady in D. S.
Denehy Company’s Store prior to her marriage to Clyde Dyke, a Surprise
Valley young man. The many friends of the family extend deepest sympathy in
their sad loss.) (1:5)
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Turner expect to leave for Sacramento within the next
few days, where they will make their future home. We regret to see Bob and
Mrs. Turner leave but wish them unbounded success in their new home.
