At the age of 50 years, 1 month and 4 days. In 1889 she was united in marriage to Elvin S. Dilts. To this union 4 children were born, one son, Harold, three daughters, Icy, Arvilla and Norma. The husband and two children, Harold and Icy preceded her in death. Also three brothers and one sister have preceded her to the other wold. On September 4th, 1921, she was again united in marriage to Otto M. Burgoon. She was a kind, loving mother. No sacrifice was too great for her to make for her children. They will greatly miss but never forget the love which found expression in so many thoughtful acts for their comfort and welfare. She was a loyal friend and good neighbor, always ready to lend a helping hand, in time of sickness or other need. The affliction which caused her death caused her much suffering during the past year, which she bore with patience. She gave bright evidence of her acceptance of God before her departure for the other world. She leaves to mourn besides her husband, two daughters, Miss Arvilla and Norma Dilts, of Chicago, Ill. Her aged father and mother, Homer and Sarah Atkinson, of Waynesfield, Ohio. Two brothers, Bert L. of Lima, and Vernon E., of Waynesfield. One sister, Mrs. Marie Shadle of Mt. Zion, Ind., with a host of other relatives and friends. Oh, what is home since mother's gone We hear the weeping children say The lovely sun has scarcely shone Since our dear mother passed away; The hours that gaily sped along And brought new prospects of delight Now linger with regretful song, And say, dear mother's gone tonight.
