| 5443 | Obituary from Find a Grave: Mildred M. Queen, 93, St. Joseph, Missouri passed away Friday, May 20, 2016, at Mosaic Life Care. She was born May 20, 1923 in St. Joseph, Missouri. She graduated from Central High School Class of 1941 and attended the Kansas City Art Institute where she was the winner of a scholarship in fashion designing. Her admission to the school had come as a surprise, courtesy of a high school art teacher who had seen her promise as an artist and applied on her behalf by submitting some of her work. Although she was accepted, her time at the Institute was short due to the bombing of Pearl Harbor that occurred during her first year there and the hard realities that came with the wartime economy that followed. Decades later, Ms. Queen still creates art | Thomas, Mildred M. (I1771)

| 5450 | Obituary from the West Union [IA] Gazette, Friday April 8, 1892, p. (1?): Thursday was one of sad presage in two burials; in the forenoon that of Mrs. Rose Mellendy [sic] daughter of Eli Rogers, living at Westfield, who had a short illness, not many aware of it till the time her funeral was announced. It was a great and severe blow to her parents, and greater in its afflictive nature to four children, very young, deprived of a mothers love and cast upon the world when most in need of it. She was a worthy woman and by an amiable life had made many friends, who assembled in the little church near where she lived, to attend her funeral, at which Elder McCormack presided. | Rogers, Della Rose (I4538)
